Views of Paris

The 196 meters high summit of the Tour Montparnasse provides some of Paris's most impressive views. The building itself is nothing to look at (unless you have a soft spot for brutalist tower blocks) but take the super-fast lift to the 56th floor and you will be rewarded with a superb 360-degree vista of the city, taking in the Eiffel Tower, Sacré Coeur and all the other major landmarks.

Rue de l'Arrivée, 15e. Open: daily 09h30-23h00.

Admission: EUR8.50, adults; EUR5.80, children. Tel: +33 (0)1-4538-5256.

Métro: Montparnasse-Bienvenue.

More interesting architecturally, and almost as good in the view stakes, in the heart of the city's business district the ultra-modern Grande Arche de la Défense stands as a modern-day Arc de Triomphe. A panoramic glass lifts transport visitors 110 metres to the viewing floor at the top - for a perfect view along the full length of the Champs Elysée.

Parvis de le Défense.

Open: 10h00-20h00. Admission: EUR7.50, adults; EUR6, children.

Tel: +33 (0)1-4907-2727. Métro: Grande Arche de la Défense.
