It is a vast pedestrian area of 30 ha (1.5 km long) around which the buildings of the Defense District are distributed. Under this slab are parkings on seven levels, railway tracks, motorways… On the surface, you cannot miss to visit an open-air museum showcasing the monumental works of major artists of the twentieth century. To discover in particular: Alexander Calder's Stabile, a huge red spider (15 m high, 75 tons), the Thumb of Caesar (12 m height, 18 tons) or the Characters of Miró (12 m high); blue, yellow and red, this strange polyester resin duo marks the entrance of the Four Times.

L'architecture sur dalle peut être déconcertante au début mais la balade de la Grande Arche jusqu'à la Seine (ou vice-versa) sur cette grande voie piétonne vaut le coup. On peut ainsi découvrir le quartier plus en détail avec ces tours de bureaux ou d'habitation, les œuvres d'art contemporain réparties dans le quartier ou profiter des événements et festivals qui s'y déroulent fréquemment. S'équiper d'une application dédiée au quartier pour mieux comprendre son histoire, le lieu, et se repérer pour ne pas manquer de curiosités est bien utile.
