Should I go to Paris in February?
Should I go to Paris in February? Just as there are heat waves, there are also cold spells that briefly turn Paris frigid. Avoid December through February if you're averse to temperatures in the 30s and 40s. In April and May, you'll inevitably encounter some rain, but you'll also have temperate, almost-summer weather without the summer crowds.
What time does the Eiffel Tower sparkle?
The Tower lights and beacon are lit up every evening from dusk until 11.45pm. As soon as it gets dark, the Eiffel Tower's golden lighting switches on automatically within less than 10 minutes, thanks to light-sensitive twilight sensors. Simply check an almanac to find out what time the monument will light up.
