France Paris Arc de Triomphe

The Arc de Triomphe in Paris stands majestically in the center of the Place Charles de Gaulle. The granite arch is 50 meters high. The top of the arch is intricately carved with a statue of the god of war Mars, and the four walls are covered with magnificent reliefs of Napoleon's battles. From the observation deck on top of the gate, you can overlook the twelve radiating avenues that extend like stars, the most dazzling of which is the Champs-Elysées. This "Pastoral Paradise Street" is paved with cobblestones and lined with chestnut trees on both sides. It is green in spring and golden in autumn. The golden dome of the Louis Vuitton headquarters and the glazed exterior of the Guerlain perfume house complement each other, and the open-air cafe is filled with the creamy aroma of freshly baked croissants. Every Christmas, the entire avenue is hung with 100,000 crystal lights, and the Arc de Triomphe is covered with a blue, white and red light curtain, allowing the Baroque street lights and neoclassical buildings to interpret the eternal romance of France under the night sky. The historical axis from the Louvre to the Arc de Triomphe is transformed into a flowing feast, witnessing the glory and splendor of Paris.
