Is Paris in the winter fun?
Is Paris in the winter fun? There's no such thing as a bad time to visit Paris. The city retains its romantic charm all year long, with winter offering its own unique appeal: trees and Haussmannian boulevards gleam with twinkle lights, cafes glow with red heat lamps, and department stores go all out with lavish holiday displays.

Is it better to see the Eiffel Tower from the 2nd floor or the top?
The peak experience is halfway down. By all means, go to the top if you have the time (skip it if your schedule's tight). But I prefer to linger on the second floor: For me, the best views are from this middle level — high enough to see all of Paris, but low enough to pick out distinguishing landmarks.
