Palais De Chaillot, Paris Overview
Set in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, The Palais de Chaillot lies between the Place du Trocadéro and the Trocadero Gardens. The Palais de Chaillot sits atop Chaillot hill and faces the Eiffel Tower on the banks of the river Seine.
The gorgeous view of the Eiffel Tower and the Trocadero gardens from this spot is the most renowned Paris view. Notably, the Palais de Chaillot encompasses four cultural institutions, including the Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine (Architecture Museum), the Musée national de la Marine (Maritime Museum), the Musée de l'Homme (Anthropology Museum) and Chaillot - Théâtre national de la Danse. Also, the walk from here to Eiffel Tower across the Trocadéro gardens and the Iéna Seine bridge is a mesmerizing experience.
It was constructed for the 1937 International Exhibition of Arts and Techniques Applied to Modern Life. Remarkably, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights at the Palais de Chaillot in 1948. This event is commemorated by a stone, and the esplanade separating its pavilions is now known as the esplanade des droits de l'homme (i.e., esplanade of human rights).
