    The crowd around the Eiffel Tower is always so large, this place gives you full view of the tower, beautiful at night. Amazing view. If you go at night, have a good night-setting on your camera.

    Grab your friends and go to Trocadero to watch le Tour Eiffel sparkle at night. One of the best views of the entire tower. Photoshoots are a common sight during the day--great place to people watch.

    One of the great places to view Eiffel Tower. Arrive by metro, exit the station, turn around and you can't miss it. Avoid all the 100s of street sellers. Go to Tour Montparnasse for even better views

    A long ascent will take you to the stairs decorated with beautiful statues. Going up, you’ll get the perfect view of the Eiffel Tower. Lots of tourists stand here to take the perfect shot with it.

    The perfect place to enjoy French cuisine. From cafe's to high end restaurants. Enjoy a nice salad, a croissant and a hot chocolate or coffee at Cafe du Trocadero or Malakoff
