April 2015
The last attraction on the final day in Paris is a visit to Montparnasse Tower. This building was built on top of the Montparnasse – Bienvenue Paris Metro station, so obviously, we got here by getting off at this metro station. A short walk from the station will take you to the tower.
The tower consists of offices thus we entered by the side entrance to access the lift to the viewing deck. There are two floors of viewing decks, the Panoramic floor is fully covered with a small cafe and the other, The Terrace at roof top is open air. We booked our tickets online here. The views in my opinion isn’t as spectacular as Eiffel Tower as river Seine isn’t so visible.
