If you're looking for one of the best views in Paris, then you're missing out if you don't take in the City of Lights from atop the Arc de Triomphe.

The Arc is a Neoclassical take on the ancient Roman triumphal arch style. Standing 50 meters tall, the view from the platform atop the arch is worth the climb. You'll see all of the dozen Parisian avenues radiating out from it into the City of Light. Paris is one of the most fascinating places in the world, and you're at the center!
