We loved visiting this square...so much to see around it. Be careful though near the Tuileries because the teenage gypsies come around asking "do you speak english" with their stupid survey's which are nothing more than a scam to pickpocket you.

After walking through the Gardens, this was a great monument to see, given its history. We stopped by the L'Orangerie after seeing the Place de la Concorde.
Not really but still 1300 Paris citizens died die here on the guillotine, Marie-Antoinette (of the eat cake if you are hungry fame) and Louis XVI. The gold obelisk from the temple of Luxor is amazing. We were there in May on a cold rainy afternoon. The crepes sold on the sidewalk, smothered in chocolate was to die for. The...

The Place de la Concorde is the best spot to start walking either tower the Arc de Triomphe or the Louvre. You can also get a glimpse of a lot of the famous monuments and landmarks of Paris. The obelisk and two beautiful fountains at this place and the eiffel in the distance make fantastic photography targets. A nice place...

Paris looks even more charming and romantic while it rains especially if you are walking on a street lined with trees. The fountain...

It s kind of cool to take picture of Effel Tour from it. a very beautiful square! it is a nice spot to take photo.

The whole environment around the square is just great. The gardens you walk through, the pool of water with chairs all round that you can just sit in and laze away in front of the Concorde is just great. I was there during the summer of 2012, and sat at the square as the sun was coming down...I actually took...

Despite the traffic, I love the fact that apart from the fountains and the obelisk in the centre, this square has no building. Any time of the day or night, this site is attractive even though one would wish it to be totally barred from the cars. One great way to visit it is in August, where traffic is scarce,...
