Return the theme of the trip, this time I wanted to share stories and tips to the city streets of paris.
Yes,
the fashion capital of the beauty that offers a million. Not just in
the holiday season but in seasons of "work" even paris is always crowded
by visitors. We had a chance to visit the French capital this past
spring.
I also feel lucky to be given the opportunity to visit the beautiful city and never deserted it.
Maybe I gave the following experience to be a reference if you want to visit Paris
1.Eiffel Tower
The first location that was our destination is the symbol of the city of paris, eiffel tower.
To
get there, from Gallieni station we can take metro line 6 and stop at
the metro stop Bir Harkeim or it could be up to the train RER C station
Champs de Mars Tour Eiffel.
From there we just walked about 200
meters to the location. My advice if you want to visit the Eiffel Tower
came early in the day because you are guaranteed to queue up for hours
to buy tickets.
Even in times of holiday visitors queue to the Eiffel Tower into the evening.
Eiffel tower consists of 3 floors. Available on each floor ticket counter turnover.
To
reach the first floor of the ticket price is 5 euros, for 2 floor
tickets 8 euro, and to get to the top of the tower's highest floor we
have to pay another 12 euros.
Floors 1 and 2 can be reached by stairs or elevator, but to get to the top floor should be using the elevator.
To
save energy use elevators, but for those of you who want to exercise
all please take the stairs to get to floor 1 and 2.If fatigue, thirst,
or hunger, do not worry because in the first and second floor there is a
small restaurant that provides food and beverages .
From the top of the tower with a height of 325 meters, we can see the view of paris are incredibly beautiful.
