Take on the Tower: over Avenue de New York.

Eiffel Tower seen through trees from the riverside gardens near Avenue de New York, Paris

The Eiffel Tower doesn't always need the wide-open setting of the Champ de Mars to make an impression. From the gardens beside the Seine, just before Avenue de New York, it appears through the trees in a much more informal Parisian setting.

This quiet view through the trees brings together three very different parts of Paris: the Eiffel Tower, the Seine and a riverside whose names and landmarks still reveal the city's history.

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