Arc de Triomphe



Every country has a monument dedicated to the lives lost by the soldiers in the process of making it safer. All of them are shaped like an arc. Is that coincidental or by purpose? I have seen three of them so far! The first one was the Arcul de Triumf in Bucharesti, India Gate in Delhi and finally Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

Arc de Triomphe is an awe-inducing structure dedicated to the numerous French lives lost during wars. This is located in Paris. If you have an aerial view of this place, you will notice a significant point. There are 12 avenues that leads to this monument. If you look at it closely, the avenues radiate out of this monument.

  1. It is so beautiful. I like the Arch style, which I believe is because of the Roman influence. I have seen India Gate and the Gateway of India too.
