The Louvre as seen from the Eiffel Tower

Thanks to the great city planners of Paris, there are no high-rises in the central city. This allows for great views from the Eiffel Tower. Here is a shot showing the Louvre Museum and the Centre Georges Pompidou in the upper right. You can spend hours checking out the sights from here, and this is just one of many views. Take the time, especially if you have great weather like we did.
