Nothing can prepare you for the magic of the Eiffel Tower. Wherever in Paris you are sure to catch the glimpse of Gustave Eiffel’s 324-meter tower built for the 1889 World Exposition, and it will take your breath away. Admiring the tower from the green field that surrounds it is a truly spectacular experience.
You can climb to its first and second floors to get a magnificent view of Paris and spot some of the famous landmarks during the day, or you can see it lit up at night in all its glory. Take a lift to the transparent floor at the top and get a birds-eye view of Paris from the open or closed gallery.
Take a glass of champagne from a little bar high up in the sky or have a gourmet lunch or dinner in one of the two upscale restaurants with the city spread out at your feet. Visit one of the several galleries to learn more about the construction of the tower, its history, the lore, and the buildings around it. The Eiffel Tower is one of the best romantic things to do in Paris.
