Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is on the Left Bank of the Seine river and is the top tourist attraction in Paris.
The metro station "Bir-Hakeim"(Line 6) is about 500 metres from the Eiffel Tower.
At night, thousands of small lights are shining in the Eiffel Tower what makes the tower fairy-like and romantic.
In daytime (especially in high season), waiting time for the elevator can be a long time.
Visitors can climb to the first level (57.63 meters).
Each pillar of the Eiffel Tower has an entrance to one of the the elevators/stairways.
Certainly in the evening don't forget to wear some warmer cloths. On the platforms it can be windy and cold.
The official website of the Eiffel Tower is www.tour-eiffel.fr
From the Eiffel Tower you can go two directions:
- to Champ de Mars
- to Jardin du Trocadero/Palais de Chaillot
