The illuminated Champs-Elysees with the Arc de Triomphe in the background at dusk

An evening view of the Champs-Elysees, Paris's most famous avenue, extends from Place de la Concorde towards the Arc de Triomphe closing the perspective. Street lamps illuminate the wide tree-lined avenue while cars create light trails in the evening traffic. On the left, the dome of the Grand Palais, built for the 1900 World's Fair, can be glimpsed. The Champs-Elysees, almost two kilometers long, represent the heart of luxury shopping and Parisian entertainment. The twilight sky fades from blue to pink, creating a romantic atmosphere typical of the City of Light. This classic perspective is one of the most iconic images of the French capital.
