Une grande roue à la place de la Concoorde
There was a ferris wheel at the Place de la Concorde.
The ferris wheel is named after George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr., who designed a 75-meter (250-foot) wheel for the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois in 1893. It was designed as a rival to the Eiffel Tower, the centerpiece of the 1889 Paris exhibition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferris_wheel
