The Avenue des Champs-Élysées is a boulevard in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, 1.9 kilometres long and 70 metres wide, which runs between the Place de la Concorde and the Place Charles de Gaulle, where the Arc de Triomphe is located. It is famous for its theatres, cafés and luxury shops, and for the military parade that takes place each year on the avenue on 14 July to celebrate Bastille Day. The name is French for Elysian Fields, the paradise for dead heroes in Greek mythology.

Explore the winding cobblestoned streets of this charming district, historically the playground of artists and writers. Marvel at the grand Sacré-Cœur atop the hill and take in the views of Paris.
Keep an eye out for these decorative shopping arcades from the 1800s if you find yourself in the 2nd district. The most impressive of the bunch? Passage des Panoramas & Galerie Vivienne.
Certainly worth a visit anytime of year, but particularly in summer where your group can lounge on the lawns or grab a chair and recharge in the shade.
When groups want to factor in some free time for shopping, we recommend the centrally-located Les Halles. Step straight off the metro and into the mall, home to many recognisable brands.
Designed by Richard Rogers and Renzo Piano, the Pompidou Centre's "inside-out" design with its exposed structural elements and brightly colored tubes, is a striking landmark and great spot for a group photo. Note the viewing terrace and main exhibition spaces are closed for renovation until 2030.

The Arènes de Lutèce are among the most important remains from the Gallo-Roman era in Paris (known in antiquity as Lutetia, or Lutèce in French), together with the Thermes de Cluny. Lying in what is now the Quartier Latin, this amphitheater could once seat 15,000 people, and was used to present gladiatorial combats.
Groups studying the history of conflict can learn about warfare from the middle ages through to today here with one of the largest historic military collections in the world—plus Napoleon's tomb.
The Carnavalet Museum in Paris is dedicated to the history of the city. The museum occupies two neighboring mansions: the Hôtel Carnavalet and the former Hôtel Le Peletier de Saint Fargeau. On the advice of Baron Haussmann, the civil servant who transformed Paris in the latter half of the 19th century, the Hôtel Carnavalet was purchased by the Municipal Council of Paris in 1866; it was opened to the public in 1880.
Take a guided tour of the national stadium of France, used to host the French national football team and French rugby union team. This is sure to be a highlight for the football fans in your class.
