The Avenue des Champs-Elysées in Paris runs for two kilometres from the Place de la Concorde to the Place Charles de Gaulle (Place de l’Étoile), location of the Arc de Triomphe. The lower part of the Champs-Élysées is bordered by the Théâtre Marigny and the Grand Palais (containing the Palais de la Découverte). The Élysée Palace is slightly to the north, but not on the avenue itself. Further to the west, the avenue is lined with cinemas, cafés and restaurants (Fouquet’s), and luxury specialty shops.
