Place de le Concorde

The center of the Place is occupied by a giant Egyptian Obelisk decorated with heiroglypics exalting the reign of the pharaoh Ramesses 11. It is one of two the Egyptian government gave to the French in the 19th century.  It arrived in Paris on 21 December 1833. Three years later, on 25 October 1836, King Louis Phillippe had it placed in the center of Place de la Concorde, where a guillotine used to stand during the Revolution.

The incredible Millau Viaduct bridge was opened in December 2004 and is the highest bridge in the world, standing 270 meters (890 feet) over the Tarn River and is more than 340 meters (1,125 feet) in height at the top of its highest mast. It is slightly taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris and only 38 meters (125 ft) shorter than the Empire State Building. It is a cable-stayed road bridge designed by engineer Michel Virlogeux and British architect Norman Foster. It cost approximately € 400 million to complete the Millau Viaduct.The area is subject to extremes of weather and it requires a bit of luck to experience a crossing when reasonable photography is possible.
