The Dock Kitchen: An Amazing Fusion of Food and Design in London

Place de la Concorde, Paris
written by neja on 2011-12-22 #placesNot only a place of memory, but also an open-air circus. At 8 hectares (20 acres), the octagonal Place de la Concorde is the largest square in Paris. It is situated between the Tuileries and the Champs-Elysées. What is now a place for taking pictures with the Eiffel Tower on the horizon, as well as a reforming place for all sorts of street artists, is actually a place of great heritage.
