Just wondering as to why there is no roads and cars running by on the Pedestrian level.How does La Defense manage for traffic flows?

Cheers!

All the transportation links are underground.

My dad passed away four years ago and he was simply the greatest guy I've ever know. I've spent the past year trying to find out exactly where his body is -- it was donated to science and they promptly misidentified it along the way. We're finishing a DNA analysis right now in fact.

Paris is the best city and this area of paris is just amazing i like it ...

@mikelabahn my be, but it's the biggest buisness district in all europe and much more bigger than Canary Wharf (surface of offices)

@maaacs33 The French as usual just trying to be different.

I was there in 1994 and 2001,just visiting. Impressed by the buildings but have to agree with samthelima's comment of the 2 extremes used here.

Thank you for your comment,

Cheers!

@Cosairman there is a big bypass around the district, and a big railstation, the subway... and parkcars under towers!

Hello everyone. I am so happy to find a video. I had to move from France five years ago from parents' choice. I would of loved to stay there. It has ruined my life for me but I know my parents did it for me. The only thing I can do is mourn, but what good will that do? I guess the only thing for me to do is appreciate the good times I've spent there and to do my best not to forget it. Thank you so much for uploading. I miss France and everything it had to give to me and I am grateful for it.

@Cosairman Also, look at an aerial photo of La Defense.

The entire area surrounding La Defense is totally obliterated by roads. By creating a purely pedestrian environment in the center, the rest of the area is sacrificed as primarily automotive, a terrible place to walk.

I definitely prefer the old center of Paris, where there is a mix of cars and pedestrians (with some plazas and parks only for people), and not these two extremes.
