  • Favorite Thing: EIFFEL TOWER Yes...you've seen it hundreds of times, but it really is spectacular. Did not realize how enormous it was until I stood underneath it. Take the elevator to the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd levels. Save time waiting in line by taking the elevator closest to the park. The tour buses park by the street closest to the river, so the lines for the elevator are longer there. Great views of the city on a clear day. You must come back at night and see the tower lit up. For the first 10 minutes of each hour (since the year 2000 celebration), twinkle lights are turned on.....stunning!!
