Here are some more photos from my recent Paris trip. When looking through my shots, I realised that Parisians sure love their arches!

The good ol' Arch de Triumph:

La Grande Arche de la Defense - This amazing building is directly in line with (although a long way away from) the Arch de Triumph:

The massive station complex in front of La Grande Arche de la Defense:

In the shadow of the the huge arched struts that form the base of the Eiffel tower:

Many of the Paris Metro stations have these fantastic art-deco arched entrances. Can't remember what this stop was called ('Blanche' I think from looking at the pic), but it is just down the street from the Moulin Rouge:

The famous Pont Neuf near to Notre Dame. Apparently this was the first major bridge built in Europe without buildings along it.
