We will stop at the most famous landmark of Paris " Eiffel Tower" for a photo stop. The iron lady is beautifully lit in the evening.The Eiffel Tower was built by Gustave Eiffel for the 1889 Exposition Universelle, which was to celebrate the 100th year anniversary of the French Revolution. As France’s symbol in the world, and the showcase of Paris, today it welcomes almost 7 million visitors a year (around 75% of whom are foreigners), making it the most visited monument that you have to pay for in the world. An object of discord, desire and fascination, the Eiffel Tower never fails to impress.
Two years, two months and five days
Its construction in 2 years, 2 months and 5 days was a veritable technical and architectural achievement. "Utopia achieved", a symbol of technological prowess, at the end of the 19th Century it was a demonstration of French engineering personified by Gustave Eiffel, and a defining moment of the industrial era. It was met immediately with tremendous success.

We will have a short stop at the famous administrative building of paris Hotel de ville. The Hôtel de Ville de Paris has been the seat of the Paris City Council since 1357. The current building, with a neo-renaissance style, was built by architects Théodore Ballu and Edouard Deperthes on the site of the former Hôtel de Ville which burnt down during the Paris Commune in 1871. Visits to the town hall, a powerful and prestigious place, are possible. Guided tours are offered by reservation only and are organized by the city’s Protocol Department. Visitors can discover the function room, created as a replica of the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles. Free major exhibitions are also organized here and are a great success.

Occupying an area of approximately 18.8 acres (7.6 hectares), the Place de la Concorde is the largest square in Paris. A design by Ange-Jacques Gabriel won a competition to provide suitable surroundings for a previously commissioned bronze equestrian statue of Louis XV. The moat-skirted square—technically an octagon because of its cut-off corners—was approved in 1755, but Edmé Bouchardon’s statue of the king was not put into place until 1763. The southwestern side of the square was left open to the river. On the opposite side, flanking the rue Royale, Gabriel placed two matching buildings, now called the Hôtel de la Marine and the Hôtel de Crillon.
