No trip to Paris is complete without a stop at the Eiffel Tower! Built in 1889 by Gustave Eiffel for the Paris Exposition, it was the tallest structure in the world at the time. Enjoy the view from the top by day and the romance of illuminated Paris by night.
"I know it's obvious and clichéd, but I used to love whizzing past the Eiffel Tower's lights on late night taxi rides. That sight never once lost its magic for me. Paris lights up its monuments at night, so the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe, and many others are illuminated late into the evening. It's a magical sight." -Lauren K., Miami University
