Take on the Tower - from a distance.

 

View from the rooftop of Galeries Lafayette in Paris, overlooking the Opéra Garnier with the Eiffel Tower visible in the distance.

From the rooftop of Galeries Lafayette, Paris opens out in layers. The Opéra house anchors the foreground, dense rooftops stretch outward, and the Eiffel Tower appears quietly on the horizon, never demanding attention, just reminding you it’s there. A view that shows how the city lives around its icons, not beneath them and one you should seek out on a visit to the city.

“You don’t look for the Tower — you simply notice when she finds you.”
