ARC DE TRIOMPHE DU CARROUSEL


My blogposts this week will feature the parks and gardens of Paris and I will start with the iconic Tuileries. The photo I have chosen shows the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel which was built in 1805 to celebrate Napoleon's victories in battle. The arch is situated at the eastern end of the Jardin des Tuileries and is frequented by eager curio sellers ... who can resist the temptation to return home from Paris with their own miniature Eiffel Tower?
