PARIS, FRANCE
Wonder about the best family travel in Paris, France? Wonder no more! Experience of childhood wonderment and giddiness when we got to see the Eiffel Tower in daylight, nighttime AND with the tower sparkling.
First, in daylight, you can admire the grandeur of the creation! You can get to the top of the tower and see the city from the bird’s eye view.
When it’s lit up, it’s truly magical. I always regretted not seeing it close up when it’s lit up and now when the opportunity presented itself, we made it a goal to see it fully lit up.
Then the friends we made along the way mentioned that the tower sparkles the first few minutes on the hour in the evening, we returned to see it in person. It did not disappoint. It was late, yes, but the park was still filled with people. We took videos and pictures; it was truly a fun experience.
