Paris 8

In the 8th arrondissement you can start at the Place de la Concorde and make your way up the Champs-Elysées, the world’s most beautiful avenue, all the way to the Arc de Triomphe. The prestigious 8th enjoys an international reputation and is home to numerous luxury shops and hotels. But the charming district is more than just a tourist attraction. The elegant Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré draws some of the greatest creators from around the world, local Haussmann-style buildings peer down in all their stateliness, and the Parc Monceau is a favourite spot for families. Considered one of the most beautiful gardens in Paris, the park is a green space of tranquillity in the heart of the capital. Throw in countless museums (including the Petit and Grand Palais) and art galleries, and the 8th is a lively place to be.
