Arc de Triomphe
Stand 50 metres above the middle of the world’s largest traffic roundabout with a trip to the Arc de Triomphe. The ‘triumphal arch’ was commissioned in 1806 by Napoleon to commemorate his victories, but remained unfinished until 1836. Visit at 6:30 pm to see the memorial flame rekindled each evening for the unknown WWI soldier laid to rest beneath the arch.
