Nice and beautiful square where you can look to some of the most famous buildings from Paris. The place is clean and well preserved. I truly recommend you to visit this area if you’re near Paris downtown.

Nestled between the Champs-Élysées and the Tuileries Gardens, Place de la Concorde stands as one of Paris’s most iconic squares—majestic in scale, yet curiously subdued in spirit.

This is a great place for history buffs and features beautiful statues, fountains, and the coolest obelisk I've ever seen (a gift from Egypt!). If your not into architecture or statutory, though, you would find much else in the place. It's very nice to walk through though, and it's big enough so it doesn't feel crowded.

When is the best time to visit Place de la Concorde (Paris, France)?

In winter, enjoy the festive Ferris wheel near the obelisk. In summer, visit early mornings to avoid heat. Spring and autumn bring mild weather and fewer crowds.
