But let’s journey back in time. Imagine Paris in 1640. Space was cleared for planting trees. This would become a famous avenue. The Champs-Élysées translates to Elysian Fields. It is from Greek mythology. It means the resting place of Greek gods. It is similar to the Christian paradise.
By 1724, the avenue grew to its current size. In 1994, the city renovated the sidewalks. This improved the Champs-Élysées. Today, high-end stores, cafes, and offices line the street. It is ideal for shopping and strolling.
The Champs-Élysées is divided into two parts. The lower part runs through a park. Here, you will see imposing buildings. These include the Palais de la Découverte. You will also see the Petit Palais and the Grand Palais.
The higher part begins at Place Charles de Gaulle. Here, the Arc de Triomphe stands. You will find high-end stores, restaurants, and cinemas. The Avenue de la Grande Armée leads to La Défense. From the Grande Arche, you get amazing views.
The Champs-Élysées is known for the Tour de France’s final stage. Every July 14, the French National Day military parade takes place here. For New Year’s Eve, the avenue is open to a million people. They come to celebrate the hope of a happy new year.
