Europe France Paris Tourist-Attractions Eiffel Tower
Rating:  2    0


We took a ferry from Dover to Dunkirk on our way to Paris as we planned a visit to Paris and wonderful Eiffel Tower. From Dunkirk we all traveled to Paris city, here we witnessed this magnificent man made structure, great Eiffel Tower. Wow! What a fantastic sight it turned out to be. You can not expect such a comprehensive view of Paris than from the top of the Eiffel Tower. Built in the year 1889 to celebrate the 100th year of the French Revolution, and is named after its creator Gustav de Eiffel it presents an eloquent bird?s eye view of the entire Paris. The moment we got to the elevator, there was a silent thrill all around. Most of the co-passengers were tourists with their children. They all were extremely excited to see this magnificent city situated on the river Siene form its topmost point. There was lot of anticipation as the elevator started moving up. Besides being two centuries old, the tower is continuously charming the visitors and remains as one of the best landmarks of Paris city. Well, ticket counters are available at the tower?s base. You can get on to the tower either through the elevator or the winding stair case and can have a glimpse of this beautiful city from any of the 3 platforms at the top of the Eiffel Tower. As we were enjoying the view of this splendid city that was laying below as well as the River Siene it appeared as if River was extremely intertwined with Parisian style of life and history. One thing to really take care of is that the elevator wait lines can be ridiculously long mainly during summer times, so it?s wise to visit the tower either early morning hours or after 6 in the evening so as to avoid those long hour waits in queues. Alongside, it gets really hot in summers, relishing an ice cream on the second platform can help in tolerating the heat. If looking for those mementos which feature Eiffel Tower, then this gift shop on the second platform can assist you in grabbing one. After enjoying at plenty of other landmarks that this beautiful city of Paris has on its platter for all the tourists, we returned on some of the inexpensive ferries that work between France and England and were finally back home after a fantastic trip to Eiffel Tower.

Europe France Paris Hotels Hotel Mercure Wagram Arc de Triomphe
Rating:  2    0


I checked into this hotel at 5 pm on my trip to Paris. The staff at the frond door were friendly and courteous. The hotel is situated close to Arc de Triomphe. There were many shopping complexes and I shopped to my heart?s content. The food served in the hotel is also good and I recommend this hotel.

Europe France Paris Tourist-Attractions Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Paris
Rating:  1    0


Cathedral Notre-Dame is one such well known landmark of Paris? which astonishes every tourist with its majestic towers that span for eternity. The most eye striking feature of the cathedral is its interior. The candles burning in the background is another most wonderful and eye catching scene here. Carvings on the exterior side of the cathedral are extremely beautiful and will surely make you think about how much hard work must have went into this church.

I just returned from Paris. I had a great experience visiting Eiffel Tower. I went just before the sun set. I think during that time you get to see the view of Paris in both day light and also of the evening time. I clicked some beautiful photos and I think that it is a life time experience visiting Eiffel tower in Paris.

Rating:  2    0


I was looking for a cheap hotel and stumbled upon hotel Mercure Wagram Arc de Triomphe. The hotel enjoys superiority in not only its cheap hotel room booking but also for its location. The location of the hotel is excellent. It is located near subway and Arc de Triomphe and is less than 15 minutes away from Eiffel Tower. Apart from its great location it is also a good hotel for its great customer service. The staff is very friendly and takes care of your needs. Unlike other budget hotels it is well maintained with clean rooms. The front desk service is good and is very courteous and the breakfast served here is very delicious. I would say that it is the best budget hotel that you find in Paris.
