ai generated text

The Avenue des Champs-Élysées is a 1.9-kilometer-long avenue in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, running between the Place de la Concorde and the Place Charles de Gaulle. It is known for its theaters, cafes, luxury shops, and annual Bastille Day military parade. The avenue was originally laid out in 1667 by André Le Nôtre and was extended several times between 1709 and 1774. It was later reconstructed during the Second Empire, with broad tree-lined boulevards, covered walkways, and arcades. The Champs-Élysées has become a fashionable avenue, with trees forming rectangular groves and grand private mansions backing onto the formal gardens.learn more on wikipedia
