We had 1 stops on the way and we reached Paris at 11.15 AM. But for reaching our rented flat from Paris Border taken 1.30 Hrs due to heavy traffic-Jam. He dropped us at Porte De Italy.

Eiffel Tower
Shine Cruise
After getting fresh and lunch, we started for symbol of Paris, Eiffel Tower at 3PM. We reached Trocadero at around 3.45 pm and From their we walked towards Tower. Very nice views in all respectJ. Eiffel Tower : as thought there was a big queue for the tickets to go up in the tower. We stood in the queue on the East side which has less number of people in the queue. there one need to buy ticket to the Top floor 13 € / person and It was a great experience to travel from 2nd floor to summit in the lift. Many people in the lift shouted with excitement and fear of height. When we reached summit, it was the cool breeze that welcomed us. We enjoyed our first few minutes in glancing the beauty of the “most romantic city in the world”. Afterwards we started our business as usual, taking photos. After posing for many photos we settled down in some corner and had light snacks, at least I call them light. We waited the sun to set and after sun was set, it was again a different and beautiful view of Paris. We again took many snaps and afterwards we took Lift to go down. It’s a custom of Eiffel tower management that after sun is set, they will turn on the special lights on the tower which will make like tower is sparkling. They put these lights on for 10 minutes after every hour. Let me explain this in more detail, for example, 1st they will turn on the light at 9pm and keep them sparkling till 9.10 pm and again they will turn on the light at 10pm and turn off at 10.10pm. Getting down again was the best experience specially with my family and 5 month old YASH and friend Ravi. We have taken some snack in Park then started the River cruise (13 € / person) for 1.5 Hrs,visited all surrounding along the River r Sine.It was great view of sparkling Tower from Ship.Purched some monument of Tower from Indian Guys Back to Apartment by 12 AM really a lot of crowd was their
