In part four of this week's series 'Famous European Squares', we profile the Place Charles de Gaulle in Paris, which is one of the French capital's busiest traffic intersections. With the famous Arc de Triomphe in the center, the square is a backdrop for many annual events such as wreath-laying at the tomb of the unknown soldier on Armistice Day - and the final stretch of the Tour de France in the summer.
