In Paris from 6 - 11 Nov 2004 as part of my free-n-easy Europe Trip.
This is the world famous Eiffel Tower. The view from the top is breathtaking, costing 10.50 Euros.
If you want to beat the crowd, go during weekdays at before 8:30am. Otherwise, you'll need to queue up to 2 hours just to get to the top. But trust me, the time spent is worthwhile.
Remember to make another trip at night to see the tower lighted up in yellow. Occasionally, there will be white lights sparkling all over the tower. It's a fabulous sight. |

fayewithane Mon Mar 5, 2007 16:42 UTC Good warning - losing one's balance on a train isn't so far fetched, so could easily hide an attempt to pickpocket. But I wonder why you felt you had to point out that the guy was black? | bafgkm Tue Nov 2, 2004 17:54 UTC Nice job on Paris!! Thanks for the detailed info!! I'll visit Paris someday with someone special! ^^ | bpacker Thu Oct 14, 2004 03:32 UTC Thanks for popping by my HCMC page! You've just returned from Paris like me? I'm building my page on this lovely place as well.. | CALSF Wed Oct 13, 2004 00:47 UTC Hi, nice Paris tips. Not sure what you mean by 'rowdy'-never found Parisians to be rowdy. But true about pickpockets on the metro-it's their hangout. Unfriendly people can be found everywhere not just in Paris. |
