Arc de Triomphe


Living in Paris, I take advantage of the free monument and museum visits on the first sunday of the months. Sad to say starting April, this perk will be gone, as tourists flood to Paris!

Thats why, I had to go take the last opportunity to ascend the 2nd largest Arc in the world- Arc De Triomphe last sunday.
It was a long climb but we made it!

View from the top of the 51m Arc. Awesome, but I wished the sky was clear.
Tomb of the unknown soldier & the eternal flame.

Where my 3 friends stand, is the center of the Etoile! And that is where the 12 Avenues split out from.
