The Eiffel Tower From Every Angle
The Trocadéro and the Champs de Mars boast Paris' best perspectives of the city's iconic iron structure.
Erected in 1889 as the entryway into the World's Fair, the Eiffel Tower has become one of the world's most recognizable works of art.
Picnic in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower and feel like you're in the postcards you see at souvenir stalls.
... the most perfect place to watch the Bastille day fireworks!"

Quiet Escapes Away from the Crowds
Make your way down to the Seine and enjoy the river's placid waters.
Quietly contemplate works of art at the Palais de Tokyo and Paris' Museum of Modern Art.
Enjoy the Champs de Mars gardens, visit Musée du Quai Branly, wander through the Palais de Chaillot park, check out the Iles des Cygnes (Swans lake) and the small replica of the Statue of Liberty near the Seine river."
