Tags: Gaming, Social Media, Earth

Paris is a big city and rich with activities. How can you know what to do first? It’s your first visit to Paris and you want to make sure not to miss any of the best sites in the city? We have gathered them for you.

1) The Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower is the emblem of Paris, and it would be an absolute sacrilege to not at least go by and take some pictures. Looking down on Paris from its 325 meters (1066 ft) in height, the Eiffel Tower was built for the Paris World Exhibition of 1889 by Gustave Eiffel.

It held the world’s highest building record until 1930 when the Chrysler Building was built in New York City.

Today it is the second most visited building in France, right after the Notre-Dame-de-Paris Cathedral.

Endure the queue and the height and climb to the top; you won’t be disappointed by the view of Paris and the Champ de Mars!

The Eiffel Tower hosts several restaurants, so you can enjoy a meal with a spectacular view, though you will have to book your table a few months in advance to be able to eat there.
