Boulevards of Paris

Looking westwards down Boulevard Haussmann and Galeries Lafayette (right)

The Boulevards of Paris (French: Boulevards de Paris) are boulevards which form an important part of the urban landscape of Paris. The boulevards were constructed in several phases by central government initiative as infrastructure improvements, but are very much associated with strolling and leisurely enjoyment in the minds of Parisians.

Parisian boulevards and avenues are usually tree-lined on one or both sides, which is rarely the case for smaller roads.
