13.Paris is such a magical city that never loses its charm.However,its flat surface makes it difficult to find viewpoints to enjoy the city from a bird's eye view.Thus,we want to suggest some best places to admire from the heights one of the most romantic capitals of the world!
The Eiffel Tower
With its 324 meters,it is one of the most typical viewpoints of the city.The views from the top would be the best but for a disadvantage:the views will not include the Eiffel Tower.Sporty people will get an astonishing 360° view for 5?when climbing on foot,although lifts are also available for 15?with much fewer efforts.
Notre Dame Towers
Notre Dame,69 meters high from the ground,is one of the greatest French architecture.Its main disadvantage is having to climb the 387 steps in the south tower,but its brilliant views are worth it.Admission fee costs 8.5?for adults and reduced admission fee is 6.5?.Europeans under 25 may consider it the best option as they have free admission.
Montparnasse Tower
The second highest building of Paris offers one of the best views of the city.The main advantage:its 59 th floor,at a height of 210 meters,offers an amazing view of all Paris.The main disadvantage:glass screens make it difficult to take good pictures.Admission fee to the top costs 14.5?for adults and reduced admission fee is 11.5?.
Centre Pompidou
The terrace (平臺) of the Pompidou Museum,46 meters high from the ground,offers 360° views and it has the advantage of lying in the most central district of the city.There is no need to pay to get to the top.However,art lovers would rather pay 12?admission fee,which includes both a visit to the exhibition and the access to the terrace.
