1. Trocadéro

One of the most beautiful places to view the Eiffel Tower is Trocadéro. This is also the most famous place to do that.

Thus if you are only 24 hours in Paris, this is a great place to visit.

If you want to go here, I would recommend going there at sunrise. The sunrises here are very magical.

Furthermore, it can get busy during the day. For that reason, it is more convenient to be there early.

Moreover, be prepared to see some love stories when you're here! It's one of the most popular places for marriage proposals in Paris. Furthermore, there are many women in their wedding dresses!

Trocadéro is a beautiful place because here you get a wide overview of the Eiffel Tower.

Furthermore, because it's not very close to the Eiffel Tower, you don't have to look up if you want to see the whole Eiffel Tower.

Also, it's very easy to reach Trocadéro, since you can go to the metro station Trocadéro.

The steps of Trcadéro are also very famous. It's another great place to see the Eiffel Tower from and you can also take beautiful photos here.

Furthermore, it is a lovely place to sit down as well!

If you walk down the stairs, you get to another beautiful place at Trocadéro. From there, you will also have a great view of the Eiffel Tower.

Especially when you want to take photos of the Eiffel Tower, it's very convenient that all these spots are at the same place.

If you just want to see the Eiffel Tower that isn't really necessary. But it's still lovely to just walk around Trocadéro and see all these views!

2. Avenue de Camöens

Avenue de Camöens isn't as famous as Trocadéro. But it's a great place to view the Eiffel Tower!

It's only a short walk from Trocadéro. Thus, if you go to Trocadéro, I'd recommend going here as well!

It isn't crowded here. So if you want to enjoy the Eiffel Tower by yourself without waking up early, this place is great!

Furthermore, you can just sit down here and relax. I also love that there are some Parisian houses as well. That makes the experience even better!

3. Champ de Mars on the side of the Seine

Do you see what's behind the pink tree? It's the Eiffel Tower!

Champ de Mars is a lovely park very close to the Eiffel Tower. At this park, you can sit down, walk around or have a picnic. At the same time, you can enjoy watching the Eiffel Tower!

You should definitely go here when there are pink trees because then this place looks like a fairy tale. You can usually find the pink trees during spring in Paris in the months of March, April, and May.

4. Metro line 6

If you travel through the city by public transport, you should also go inside metro line 6! It's one of the most unique places to view the Eiffel Tower.

Even though it's just for a brief moment, it is definitely worth it! It's a great experience and this is a very unique spot.

This place is also at Champ de Mars. But from here you can get a whole different view of the Eiffel Tower!

Besides the great view of the Eiffel Tower, this is a very lovely area in Paris to walk around.

Since there are lovely cafes here, many trees and beautiful Parisian houses, this is a great place to spend your day!

6. Pont de Bir-Hakeim

Pont de Bir-Hakeim isn't only amazing because of the view of the Eiffel Tower. It's also amazing because it was in the movie Inception!

If you remember the scene with the mirrors, you may remember this place as well!

You should definitely go here when it's raining because here you can watch the Eiffel Tower without getting wet.

Furthermore, this is one of the most beautiful photo spots in Paris, because the lamp makes this place very unique!

Moreover, Pont de Bir-Hakeim is easy to access if you're traveling through the city by public transport. Very close to this place is a metro stop.

7. Port Debilly

Port Debilly is another one of the best places to view the Eiffel Tower! Since there are many trees, you can see the Eiffel Tower between the trees. This makes the place very special.

Especially in autumn, this place is magnificent. That's because the colors of the trees look beautiful in combination with the Eiffel Tower.

If you want to take photos of the Eiffel Tower, this place is perfect. There won't be people in the background of your photo.

Furthermore, this is also a great place to walk around. You can walk towards the Eiffel Tower from here as well.

8. Bus stop of Musée d'Art Moderne - Palais de Tokyo

Waiting for the bus isn't the most fun thing to do. But at this bus stop at one of the museums of Paris, it definitely is!

While sitting down and waiting for the bus, you can enjoy the Eiffel Tower. When I waited for the bus here, for the first time in my life I wished the bus had a delay!

But since public transport in Paris is great, you usually don't have to wait for the bus for a long time.

From here, you can take the bus to many parts of Paris. For example, you can go to Rue Crémieux, which is a very colorful street that you should definitely see!

Since the Eiffel Tower is very beautiful, I'm sure you will have an amazing time while watching it. It's also very fun to go inside the Eiffel Tower! It's convenient to buy your tickets for the Eiffel Tower online.
