The upper stories are mostly occupied by offices as few people can afford to live on the Champs-Élysées. Since 1975, the last stage of the Tour de France traditionally finishes on the Champs-Élysées, with riders typically making six to eight circuits back and forth on the avenue.

Via Dolorosa



Via Dolorosa (Latin for Way of Grief) is a famous street, in two parts, within the Old City of Jerusalem that traces the last steps of Christ on the way to his crucifixion. The 0.25 km (0.16 miles) route has changed over the centuries and archaeological discoveries in the 20th century now indicate that the early route of the Via Dolorosa on the Western hill was actually a more realistic path. Nevertheless, pilgrims traditionally walk the route, identifying with Jesus’ suffering. Along the route are 14 Stations of the Cross, each connected with a particular story or event.
