This is a gorgeous place to come in Paris (especially for a quick rest to take a break from shopping!). Come during the summer to enjoy the Ferris wheel- but watch out for bees!

One of the most beautiful squares in Paris with a 3000-years old obelisk from Luxour in the middle. From this place you can walk down the Champs-Elysées till l'Arc de Triomphe.

Very big square with obelix, statues and fountains . The old exotic lamps also give a great ambiance. So beautiful and scenic . Great in the evening with lights.

The history of this place was gory but rich. A must-see in Paris. Spare a moment to think of the carnage in the name of revolution.

They charge 15 euro for the Ferris wheel and its worth the spend. Majestic views of Arc de triomphe and Eiffel. Very friendly crowd at the square.

Big square, with oldest "building" in Paris - the obelisk! Also Diana with Dodi drove around it during their final journey to Ponte l Alma.

Elizabeth Lee

Near the Jardin Tuilleries, you can visit the Obelisk here. Great view of Obelisk, Arch du Triumph and the Lourve in one line . Hats off to French town planners and architects!

If you are a movie fan you'll find here the fountain where Andy throws her cellphone to water in "devil wears Prada" apart from that appreciate the Egyptian obelisk (yes is original, not made)
