Not necessarily to stand in line and go up, but grab some food, and a bottle of wine and picnic in the park.

Every half hour, the Eiffel Tower sparkles, gorgeous! Be prepared for long wait times to travel to the top, but it's well worth it to find yourself surrounded by the city of lights.

Beautiful. A must for the Christmas markets during the holidays. A great Christmas village across from the Eiffel Tower.

Spent a couple of child-free days walking the entire city a couple of years ago and it was absolutely dreamy....

it's worth looking at just from below...I did not plan ahead, but the wait to go up in the tower was super long. We just went to Montmartre instead and that was breathtaking.

The Eiffel tower is awesome and even better at night. Be sure to check it out during the evening when it lights up for 5 minutes every hour on the hour.

if you go to Eiffel just before sunset you can watch it light up and take great pics with the remainder of day light left.

The best is the "pique nique" during summer and see the tower lights every hour.

Amazed at how many people use the mall as a picnic area. They spread out a blanket and simply enjoy the day.

Okay, I admit I cried like a girl when I captured my first glance. I had dreamed of seeing it since I was a little girl so that makes it perfectly cool :-)

It is amazing to eat in the restaurant on the first level of the Eiffel Tower, but extremely pricey. Don't miss the light show every night!

It's cheaper and quicker to just walk up rather than wait in a long queue for the lift.

You need to try the Restaurant out while you are up the tower, the tasting menu is the best.

Got drunk and stumbled around this monument, somewhat of a wasted trip, but cool to see.

It's almost unthinkable that when it opened in 1889, this now symbol of the city (if not the country) was not only a source of intense derision, but was actually supposed to have been torn down.

If you have time and courage, go to the very top level! The elevator was a bit scary as it has glassed walls, and you think you are going to fly out over the top, but what a view! You can see Paris for miles. This memory will be there always.
