10 views of the Eiffel Tower -Part 1-

Here are ten top places in Paris where you can admire the great lady. 

1. a tower at the other 
The Montparnasse Tower is perhaps a wart in the Parisian landscape, but also what was said about the Eiffel Tower at one time. One was once the only place in town where you could not see the second, but the gap is repaired. The 56th floor observatory now offers a whole magical view of Paris. The Eiffel Tower looks like a tiny toy away. The restaurant-bar heaven of Paris offers dinner and a drink if you want to make it last.

Get off at Montparnasse station -Bienvenue. The tower is located at 33, avenue du Maine.

D'une tour à l'autre.

2. terrace at the Trocadero 
Trocadero is often considered the best place to watch the Eiffel Tower. Teeming with tourists roam every day the esplanade of the Palais de Chaillot in taking photos, while chatting and eating chocolate crepes. This is all well and good, but if you prefer to be seated for a cocktail or a romantic dinner, try the Café rather Rights, in the museum of the same name. Tables placed near windows offer stunning views of the tower, like the terrace, perfect in the summer for a drink at a time when the sun sets and the lights that illuminate the city.

Get off at Trocadéro. The Coffee Man is at 17, place du Trocadéro.

3 From the terrace of the Centre Pompidou 
The Pompidou Centre is not just an amazing place to spend the day with expo, library and cinema: it also has a terrace with a spectacular view of Paris. Whether your budget allows you to dine with George or not, you can always take the escalator to the sixth floor to admire Paris spread before your eyes. Day or night, the show's skyline dotted with monuments in Paris is amazing. The Eiffel Tower in the distance like a charm might want to hang on to his key chain.

The Centre Pompidou Place Georges Pompidou (Rambuteau metro), is open every day except Tuesday, from 11h to 22h.

4.-of-river riverboat 
Paris from a Bateau-Mouche - we either tourist or Paris - it's a unique perspective on the city. Once boarded, no need to lift a finger. For an hour, sitting in a chair, you just have to relax and enjoy the show: Notre-Dame, the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, Invalides and bridges parade ... As for the Eiffel Tower she has charm seen from below and you will not need to scramble to enjoy. It's even better in the dark, when her silhouetted against the sky, or at a time when it is illuminated.

5 Since Auteuil racecourse 
Gray, quiet and beautiful, the Eiffel Tower view from the grandstand of the "temple of the obstacle" offers an unexpected and unique spectacle. A visit to the old racecourse the Bois de Boulogne is in itself an experience. Do not forget to slip into the skin of a Parisian punter. Sitting with a sandwich and a beer or a coffee, you blacken your fingers on Paris-Turf while watching your favorite tackle the final stretch, with the Eiffel Tower in the background. A great moment!
