The noise of the boulevards can't reach you here, but the wind catches you and your heart begins to race.Show Less - 104.7/52042 ReviewFrom26.2based on 46059 reviews"The Arc de Triomphe is literally so iconic! 🤩 Like, when you think of Paris, that massive arched monument comes to mind instantly. I finally got to see it in person on my Euro trip and it did NOT disappoint.The sheer size of it is just mind-blowing - it's taller than a 5 story building! 😱 You can actually climb up to the top and get 360 degree views of the entire city. The stairs are a workout but so worth it for the Insta-worthy photo ops of the Eiffel Tower and Champs-Élysées boulevard stretching out below you.But even just admiring the Arc up close is an experience. The intricate carved reliefs and names of major French victories decorating the sides are such a flex. 💪 It low-key makes you feel like you accomplished something just by being there, haha.My only complaint? Having to navigate those crazy roundabout intersections with cars zipping all around to reach it. Definitely an anxiety-inducing way to arrive! 😬 But in the end, no trip to Paris is complete without paying your respects to this supremely extra yet magnificent monument. ✨"Paris.Champs Elysées4.6km from downtownHighlights: ·Securing this ticket and you can climb to the top of the magnificent Arc de Triomphe and overlook the stunning city views of Paris·Visiting the pictures, models, and historical relics in the exhibition hall to learn about the history behind them·Enjoying the unique view of the Champs Elysées in Paris at nightThis attraction is one of the four representative buildings in Paris and is currently the largest round arch on the Champs Elysées. It was built to commemorate Napoleon's victory at the Battle of Austerlitz in 1806. The four sculptural groups at the base of the Arces represent "Departure", "Victory", "Resistance" and "Peace" respectively.△ The 12 streets in Paris are centered on the Arc de Triomphe and radiate to the surroundings. They are majestic and set models for the design of European cities.△ Below the Arc de Triomphe is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, built on November 11th, 1920, to pay tribute to the 1.3 million French soldiers who died in World War I.△Magnificent night view of the Champs ElyseesShow Less
- 104.7/56228 ReviewFrom28.07based on 102962 reviews"it is such an amusing place where art and coolness lives together I would recommend you to go if you have to see the arts there"Paris1.2km from downtownHighlights: ·Enjoy the charm of the locations where the movies "Phantom of the Louvre" and "The Da Vinci Code" were filmed·Appreciate the gorgeous treasures of ancient Greece, ancient Rome, ancient Egypt and other civilizations·Visit the giant glass pyramid that combines classical palaces with modern architectural stylesThe Louvre Museum was founded in 1204. The castle has undergone many expansions and was converted into a museum after the French Revolution. It is also known as the three major museums in the world together with the British Museum in London and the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Today, the Louvre Museum has a collection of 400,000 items spanning more than 1,500 years. The Louvre Museum usually displays 10% of its total collection which will feast your eyes."Three Treasures of the Louvre": "Venus de Milo", "Mona Lisa" and " The Winged Victory of Samothrace".△ The Louvre’s gallery of antiquities, which replaced the royal apartments, displays masterpieces of Greek sculpture – including the famous Venus de Milo. You would need a heart of stone not to be moved by her grace!Aphrodite or Amphitrite?When she first arrived at the Louvre, it was suggested that her missing arms should be restored, but the idea was eventually abandoned for fear of changing the nature of the work.The lack of arms made it hard to identify the statue. Many depictions of Greek gods and goddesses contain clues to their identity in the form of ‘attributes’ (objects or natural elements) held in their hands, so this sculpture poses a problem: is she the sea goddess Amphitrite, particularly worshipped on the island of Melos? Or is she Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, as might be suggested by her sensual, half-naked body? This second argument, and the jewellery she once wore, tipped the scales in favour of Aphrodite (‘Venus’ for the Romans). Another possible clue was found near the statue: a hand holding an apple – an attribute of Aphrodite – carved from the same Parian marble.△ This is the most famous portrait in the world. It shows Lisa Gherardini, wife of the Florentine silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo – hence her Italian name La Gioconda and her French name La Joconde. Painted against a distant landscape, she stares out at us with her famously enigmatic smile...The theft of the centuryOn 21 August 1911, panic broke out at the Louvre…the Mona Lisa had disappeared! The news spread like wildfire and generous rewards were promised for her return – but all in vain. Nothing was heard of the painting for over two years. Then one day, Vincenzo Peruggia, a glazier who had worked at the Louvre, tried to sell the world’s most famous painting to an Italian art dealer...who alerted the authorities. So the Mona Lisa was recovered – and her fame was all the greater.△ She seems to float through the air! Placed at a height, people could see her from afar. It was made as an offering to the gods for a sanctuary on the Greek island of Samothrace. Placed at a height, people could see her from afar. That is why, in a nod to her original lofty home, she now adorns the top of the Daru staircase. Nike, the winged goddess who heralds victory, is seen just as she is about to alight on a ship.A monumental staircaseThe Daru staircase is the perfect setting for this extraordinary display. It is one of six grand staircases built during the Second Empire in the 19th century by the architect Hector Lefuel.During the 1850s and 1860s, major works were underway to expand the Louvre and make it more modern. The former palace had already been partially transformed into a museum. The emperor Napoleon III had a new wing built to make more room to showcase more art. The old staircase built by his uncle Napoleon I was no longer adequate to access all the galleries. The only things left from that time are the ceilings leading to the Italian painting collections and the name Daru, a minister under Napoleon I.Hector Lefuel took up the challenge to design a new monumental space on three levels leading in four different directions. Visitors could choose themselves which way to go!The Winged Victory of Samothrace was placed in her new home on the upper landing in 1883, some 20 years after the statue was discovered.Show Less
