The Arc de Triomphe in Paris is a representative building of the imperial style. The rise of this style has an inseparable relationship with Napoleon's advocacy. Its prosperity and decline have always been closely linked to Napoleon's fate. These buildings are inspired and modeled by the magnificent and solemn buildings of the Roman Empire. They are large in scale, simple in appearance, and pursue the majesty, calmness and dignity of the image. The Arc de Triomphe in Paris is exemplified by the Arc de Triomphe in ancient Rome, but its scale is larger and its structure style is more concise. Apart from the eaves, walls and wall foundations, the whole building does not make any big divisions, does not use pillars, even buttress pillars are removed, and there is no line foot. The Arc de Triomphe abandoned the multi-arch coupon model of the Roman Arc de Triomphe, and set up only one arch coupon, which is simple and solemn. In November 1920, after the First World War, under the magnificent Arc de Triomphe, another "Tomb of the Unknown Martyr" was built, which buried an unknown soldier who died in the war. He represented the 1.5 million French officers and soldiers killed in the whole war. Almost every day, people come here to lay flowers in memory of the dead soldiers, which adds a solemn and heroic feeling to the Arc de Triomphe.

    I love France and I’ve been here more than 20 times either alone, with my boyfriend or with my family and best friend! Arc de Tripmphe fascinates me so much. The design and every detail of the Arc symbolises historically.

    Visiting the Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile is an unforgettable experience steeped in history and grandeur. Situated in the heart of Paris at the western end of the Champs-Élysées, this monumental arch not only offers a majestic view of the bustling cityscape but also serves as a poignant tribute to those who fought and died for France in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

    4/5Excellent

    Amazing views! Full 360 of the city. Definitely worth a trip to the top and not very expensive. We paid 32 euro for a family of three, so one of the cheaper attractions. We booked in advance and avoided a huge line. Really impressed with the interior, really wasn't what we expected inside to look like. Definitely a must when visiting Paris.

    The second time I punched in the Arc de Triomphe, the weather was bad twice. This time I bought a ticket and went in. The queue was not long. I went in for a while. It was still a bit physical to climb the stairs. When I went downstairs, I lay on the escalator and looked down. I felt soft.

    Arc de Triomphe + Rooftop access - stunning views of the city! Would always take the time (and effort to climb the enormous flight of stairs) to visit whenever I’m in the city. The lights on the Eiffel Tower would typically light up when sun goes down so it’s worth taking the time to climb up 45mins earlier or so, embrace and brave the cold wind and wait for the Eiffel Tower to light up!
