Pay a small fee and endure a few more foot-aching steps for a bird’s-eye view of the city from atop Napoleon’s Arc de Triomphe, at the end of the Champs Elysèes.
If Paris is synonymous with fashion, then Avenue Montaigne and its surrounds should be directly translated to “extremely expensive fashion.” Home to the top couture houses and the most chi-chi shopping in the city (and perhaps the world) the Avenue Montaigne area is replete with top-notch designers such as Calvin Klein, Celine, Chanel, Christian Dior, Prada and more. Although the largest concentration of upper-crust establishments is found on Avenue Montaigne, most people know the area for the world-famous Champs Elysèes, the self-proclaimed most beautiful avenue in the world. And while Champs Elysèes has in recent years attracted decidedly lower-rent tenants like the Gap and the Disney Store, it still provides a wonderful mile-long stretch for strolling, window-shopping and people-watching.

Since 1989, when it was inaugurated, the Pyramid has dominated the Cour Napoleon. Designed by the Chinese-American architect I. M. Pei as the main entrance to the museum, its transparent steel and glass framework allows visitors to admire the palace facades from the lobby beneath.
Of all the Grands Projets in Paris, none created such a stir as the Pei Pyramids in the courtyard of the famous Louvre Museum. Spectacular in concept and form, they provide a startling reminder of the audacious ability of modern architects to invigorate and re-circulate traditional architectural forms…The main Pyramid is basically a complex inter-linked steel structure sheathed in reflective glass. In fact it is an entrance doorway providing a long-overdue entrance portico to the main galleries of the Louvre. As one descends into the interior entrance foyer, the dramatic nature of the intervention becomes apparent. The main Pyramid, which certainly disturbs the balance of the old Louvre courtyard, is countered by two smaller pyramids, which provide further light and ventilation to the subterranean spaces.
