SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO DO IN PARIS

Want to discover Paris in an unusual way? An amazing, incomparable experience awaits you 200 metres above the very heart of Paris!

BIRD’S EYE VIEW OF PARIS

If you want to see Paris in a totally different way – just rise above it! In just 38 seconds, Europe’s fastest lift takes you to the 56th floor of the Montparnasse Tower. From the top of the tallest skyscraper in Paris, right in the heart of the city (where the 6th, 14th and 15th arrondissements meet), you can admire the city from a totally different angle. Here, at a height of 200 metres, you can enjoy the most beautiful sight Paris has to offer: the Eiffel Tower is right in front of you, a spectacle to take your breath away. Whether early in the morning, in the daytime, at sunset or at night, when it’s all lit up, you are sure to have the best possible view of this world-famous jewel in Paris’s crown.

From here you have a really unusual view of the city, which is revealed from a completely different angle: the colour of its roofs – a special feature of its very typical architecture – the way the streets and main thoroughfares are laid out, the rich green spaces, the diverse range of monuments… a unique place for creating lasting memories.
