La Grande Arche - a photo on Flickriver

La Grande Arche

I guess its impossible to visit La Defense without a least giving La Grande Arche a little time. In fact I spent quite some time here, its nice just sitting on the steps in the sun watching the world go by, watching people watching people. It's sad that the structure is no longer open to the public - although this may change if or when the government restore it - on closer inspection it is not as pristine as one might think. Still its completely iconic and actually I quite like it. From the steps you see the real Arche in the distance and Paris laid out before you

Thank you all very much for taking the time to view my shots - and there are more on my website
