travel tuesday // arc de triomph
last week during Travel Tuesday, I shared about our delightful day in Montmartre. What I didn't mention in that post is that after our beautiful adventure, we headed to the Arc de Triomphe to get a quintessential view of the city. We used our handy-dandy Paris Museum Pass to cut through the long lines and voila! we were ready to ascend the many steps up to the viewing area of the Arc.
This has become my favorite Paris viewpoint (tied with Notre Dame's bell-tower view!)
I must say the view from Montmartre is my favorite ;) Great post!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jessica! I LOVE your photos of Lille, France and the Netherlands! Wowza, you've seen some beautiful places yourself!!
DeleteHi Elle Alice. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love your pics. I haven't visited Paris since 2000, but I am planning a trip next year with my best friend!

I love YOUR pics, especially your most recent one with the Swiss Countryside! It brings me back to the days when I adored (and was slightly obsessed) with the movie Heidi! I could just picture her living there!
DeleteWe went and saw the Acr de triumph, but didn't go up it, now I wish we had, what lovely views!
ReplyDeleteAw, that's how I feel about the Eiffel Tower! I walked around it and sat on the green lawn near it, but never made it up there!
DeleteBeautiful views!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Tina! I am still slightly obsessed with your post of Ireland! I want to see the Cliffs of Moher so bad!
DeleteOh yes, I loooove the view from up there!
ReplyDeleteRight?? It's pretty spectacular!!
DeleteA gorgeous viewpoint indeed!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Natalie! BTW, I had been wondering when you'd continue your series on women in the Bible and just realized now that I just missed three of your posts! Yikes! I have some much needed catching-up over a cup of tea this weekend! Woohoo! I love that series!
DeleteOne word: Magical! =)
ReplyDeleteYes it was!! Most of my trip could be summed up to "magical". I miss it very much!
Deletemy goodness - absolutely breath taking!
ReplyDeleteI know, right?? It was so awesome!!
DeleteBeautiful photos! I made it to the top of the Arc once but sadly the weather was not cooperative. Maybe I'll make it back some day and try again. It's great to see what the view looks like on a sunny day :)
ReplyDeleteOh that is sad! Glad I could show ya what it looks like when the sun is peaking through! :) It's a sight to see, so I hope you can visit again soon!
DeleteHi Angela! YES IT WAS! We were in LOVE
