PARIS, FRANCE — Paris is preparing a treat for people who enjoy being surrounded by beautiful architecture and nature.
Here's a look at the grand design: The city of Paris is famous for its beautiful architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture.
This attention to intelligent design has made the city one of the top destinations for the world's richest tourists and their holiday spending.
However, CNN reports that the city has now decided to spend 305 million dollars to make the city even more beautiful.
One of the most famous avenues in Paris, the Champs-Élysées, is set for a facelift that will see it transformed into a green, pedestrian-friendly space, after Mayor Anne Hidalgo gave the go-ahead for a major renovation project.
The thoroughfare, one of the world's most famous shopping streets, accommodates eight lanes of traffic as it runs between the Arc de Triomphe and the Place de la Concorde.
Under the new plans, vehicle traffic will be reduced by half, while pedestrians will be able to enjoy wider sidewalks and more greenery.
This means that the famous avenue will be transformed from a busy roadway into something that looks more like a spacious pedestrian mall filled with trees.
