Dinner

In the evening see the Eiffel Tower, in the evening it is a truly enchanting and magical spectacle that adds a whole new dimension to this iconic landmark. As the sun sets over Paris, the tower is bathed in a soft, golden glow, and as darkness falls, it comes alive with a dazzling display of twinkling lights. The hourly sparkling light show, which lasts for several minutes, transforms the Eiffel Tower into a glittering beacon against the night sky.
