A unique monument in the middle of Paris... Not far from the Museum de Louvre, just walk along the parks and streets of Paris...

The Concorde is located in the heart of Paris, on the north bank of the Seine, one of the most famous squares in France, built in the 18th century by the order of King Louis XV. It was built to show the world his supreme imperial power, named "Louis XV Square". During the Revolution, it was called "Piazza Revolution" and was used by the French people as a stage for the destruction of royal power. In 1795, it was renamed "Plaza Concorde" and renovated in 1840. This is the scale. The square is octagonal, with the Egyptian obelisk in the center, which was given to Charles V by the Egyptian governor. The obelisk is carved from a whole piece of pink granite, engraved with Egyptian hieroglyphs, pharaohs of Egypt for their great achievements.

協和廣場位於巴黎香榭麗捨大道中段，乘地鐵1.8.12號線至 Concorde 站，在盧浮宮可以步行至協和廣場。喜歡歷史的本人，超喜歡去那些有歷史痕跡的地方，摸摸看一看，真的可以沉醉在歷史的齒輪上不可自拔~這個被法國人稱為斷頭台廣場，據說法國大革命的時候在這裡被斷頭的將近六萬多人～oh my god! !給大家科普知識一下.：協和廣場位於巴黎市中心，塞納河北岸，是法國最著名的廣場，18世紀由國王路易十五下令營建。建造之初是為了向世人展示他至高無上的皇權，取名「路易十五廣場」。大革命時期，它被稱為「革命廣場」，被法國人民當作展示王權毀滅的舞台。1795年改稱「協和廣場」，1840年重新整修，形成了這樣的規模。廣場呈八角形，中央矗立著埃及方尖碑，是由埃及總督贈送給查理五世的（其實是強迫人家送的！）方尖碑是由整塊的粉紅色花崗岩雕出來的，上面刻滿了埃及象形文字，贊頌埃及法老的豐功偉績。廣場的四周有8座雕像，象徵著法國的8大城市。
