La Defense de Paris

Reviewed By VIEQUESBEACHBUM - Sugar Land, United States

Today la defense means the large corporate business complex around where the cemetery and monuments are. Many of France ans the worlds biggest companies have offices in this amazing place. The road system is a maze and you need to go off the large campus complex to eat, but well worth the efforts. If you are not local, do not drive in this area, you will get lost

La Grande Arche de La Defense

Reviewed By PWMcC - Newtownabbey, United Kingdom

Whilst this is a bit of a journey from the other tourists attractions it is well worth a visit for the views. It is in La Defense which is commercial / business area. There is a shopping centre near by and places to eat and drink. You get to the viewing gallery by a glass lift which goes up the middle of the arch. Before you go outside there is a good exhibition which explains the history a s building of the arch. The viewing galley gives excellent views across the city and you can get good photos of the Eiffel Tower. The viewing gallery has now for sun loungers so you can sit and relax whilst enjoying the view. There is a cafe and gift show. I have visited before and would do so again just for the views. There are also excellent views of the arch itself from the steps either side where you can sit and relax or people watch !
