Take an overview of the top tourist attractions in Paris.Place des VosgesThe Place des Vosges, formerly called Place Royale, was the prototype (原型) for all residential squares in Europe. All houses were built, using the same design: red brick and steep pitched blues late roofs. Not only is it shaped like a true square, but also it is the first city square planned by a king (Henry Ⅳ in the early 17th century) . Third, it turned the Marais into a fashionable spot in the decades before the French Revolution.Moulin Rouge1889 is known as the year when France’s most famous landmark, the Eiffel Tower, was constructed. It’s also the year the Moulin Rouge opened its doors as an entertainment venue. It has been the subject of numerous films for many years.ConciergerieThe Conciergerie was built to be the main palace for French kings who, over the centuries, enlarged it. Its Great Hall was one of the largest in Europe. The palace later became a tribunal (法庭) and prison, with famous prisoners including Marie Antoinette. Today the Conciergerie is a popular tourist attraction in Paris but also still serves as courts.Palais GarnierArchitect Charles Garnier spared no ornate (华丽的) detail when designing the Palais Garnier in the 19th century. Perhaps this is why the building was the most expensive of its era. Seating nearly 2,000 people, the Palais Garnier is home to the National Opera of Paris. It is the star of the novel and subsequent films, Phantom of the Opera. The Palais Garnier is still in use today though mainly for ballet and is also home to the opera library museum.(江苏省苏州市常熟市2023-2024学年高二上学期开学考试-英语试题)21. What made Place des Vosges famous in EuropeA.
