My stroll along the Champs-Élysées is one of the best memories I have of my time in the French capital. I remember going quietly, at my own pace, and checking out the stores I wanted to see and stopping now and then for a coffee or a beer. I must honestly say it was one of the most pleasant moments of my life.
Known for its amplitude, the Champs-Élysées is full of shops and prohibitively-priced sidewalk restaurants and is the most expensive area of Paris. In fact, the majority of Paris' haute-couture houses are located off the Champs-Élysées. It is a good starting point for a route to visit the surrounding area: Pont Alexander III, the Petit Palais, the Theatre du Rond Point, the Palais de la Découverte, and
You will find some of the most luxurious shops and restaurants of the city. Very close to the Arc de Triomphe and "la concorde". It is a must if you spend only a few days in Paris.
