The 12 Avenues in Place de l'Étoile, also known as the Place Charles de Gaulle, radiate from the iconic Arc de Triomphe in Paris. These avenues include famous thoroughfares such as the Champs-Élysées, Avenue de la Grande Armée, and Avenue des Champs-Élysées, among others. Each avenue connects to significant landmarks or neighborhoods, contributing to the area's status as a major cultural and commercial hub in the city. The layout is designed in a star-like pattern, symbolizing Paris's historical significance.
