Answer 1

The Champs Elysées are the most famous avenue of Paris. It connects the Place de la Concorde with its marvelous fountains and the Obelisk at the bottom end, to the Arc de Triomphe at the upper end. They are part of the royal perspective, stretching from The Louvre Museum and the Tuileries gardens, to the Grande Arche in the business district, west of Paris. The Champs are 2 kilometers long and they host every year the finish line for the famous Tour de France cycling race, and the 14th of July military parade. Close to the Champs Elysées is the presidential palace, the "Palais de l'Elysée".
