Champs Elysées Avenue

The Champs-Elysées. Who hasn’t dreamed about strolling glamorously along its tree-lined streets towards the towering Arc de Triomphe at the west end? While the famous thoroughfare is known for its belles promenades (beautiful thoroughfare/walks), it also has much to offer in terms of shopping, eating and entertainment.

In the neighborhood surrounding the famous street, you’ll find a brief respite from the intense crowds, a less touristy feel and a return to old Paris.

The iconic avenue and its environs definitely merit a visit, especially on a first visit to the French capital.
