Trocadéro

The Trocadéro and Palais de Chaillot in Paris, France offer awe-inspiring views of the iconic Eiffel Tower. Found in the 16th arrondissement, it’s an easy walk from the Arc de Triomphe. Easily recognizable and also popular with locals, the Trocadéro, lying directly across the River Seine from the Eiffel Tower, is a grand esplanade with luxuriously laid down gardens, fountains, and statues. The grandiose Palais de Chaillot was built for the 1937 World Fair. The wings of the palace house two of the best museums in the city: The Musee de l’Homme, which focuses on anthropology and ethnology, and The Cité de l’architecture et du Patrimoine, which showcases French architecture. The best views of the Eiffel Tower can be found from the terrace of the wings of the Palais de Chaillot, offering stunning photos and unforgettable panoramas of the City of Lights.
