With
its cinemas, cafés, and luxury speciality shops, the Champs-Élysées
is one of the most famous streets in the world.
The avenue runs for 2 kilometres (1.25 miles ) through the 8th arrondissement
in north-western Paris, from the Place de la Concorde in the east,
with its obelisk, to the Place Charles de Gaulle (formerly the Place
de l'Étoile) in the west, location of the Arc de Triomphe.
