Avenue de la Grande-Armée
Seen from the top of Arc de Triomphe
the Grand Arch appears as the outline of a box.
It was built in 1989 to celebrate the
200th anniversary of the French Revolution.
The Arc de Triomphe is a part of the straight line along which one finds:
the Louvre, Place de la Concorde, Arc de Triomphe,
and finally la Grande Arche de la Defense.
The distance from the photo's vantage point
to the Grand Arch is about 3 miles.
The entire distance of the "perspective royale" is over 9 miles!
