에손 최고의 사이클링 경로

주행을 위한 것이라면 힘든 코스입니다. 사이클 투어링 외의 사이클리스트에게는 추천하지 않습니다.

아름다운 녹지 공간으로, 자전거로도 접근성이 매우 좋습니다.

Because of the good relations with Egypt, Mehemet Ali, the viceroy of Egypt, presented them with the 3,000-year-old obelisk from Luxor. Its four sides depict the deeds of Ramesses II, dating back to the 13th century BC. King Louis-Philippe, in gratitude for the obelisk, presented Mehemet Ali with a clock, which now stands in the courtyard of the Mohammed Ali Mosque in Cairo. The 23-meter-high, 230-ton colossus was a significant undertaking to bring to France. This is why it is proudly inscribed on the obelisk's pedestal. And rightly so, since we are, of course, talking about 1836. It's a good thing, by the way, that French people generally can't read hieroglyphs, otherwise it would never have been erected. The deeds of Ramesses II, which are described on the Obelisk, in some cases concern his sexual acts and, according to ‘the needle’ (The Obelisk), these were not insignificant.

Bonus tip: bring food for the ducks

On the top floor (3rd floor), Eiffel set up a small private apartment. There he received, among others, Thomas Edison. The apartment still exists today and can be viewed through a window.

Since the end of the 19th century, the tip of the Eiffel Tower has risen into the Parisian sky. Now an undisputed national symbol of France, its permanent presence was not originally planned. At the start of the project, the usage rights attached to the construction contract were set at only 20 years. After that, the tower was supposed to be dismantled. Well, it's still standing today. Can we really imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower?

A lovely walk reminiscent of the old route of the Bievres Valley. Luckily, we avoided the extension of the A10 to the ring road! A fun route, but watch out for pedestrians and cross streets...

a bike ride in the late afternoon to enjoy the fresh air of the forest and the peacefulness of the banks of the Seine. Energising.
