A new summit!


You may have been on top of the Eiffel Tower, of the Arch of Triumph, of La Tour Montparnasse and maybe on top of a few other Paris summits, but I bet you've never been on top of the Tour Saint Jacques, a tower I mentioned several times here. After a long period of renovation, they decided to open it to visitors during the summer (until september 15). No rush though, it's very unlikely you manage to get a ticket as it only takes place during weekends and you have to physically be there to purchase the tickets. Shame though, for I think it's really worth it (and I'll miss it too...)

  1. I was on top of the Tour St. Jacques in July!! A friend of mine went there to get tickets and then called me to be there in 50 minutes. The view was gorgeous!!!

  2. I would stand in line to see the top of that! What a cool angle in this shot, Eric, really showing off that interesting cloud cover.

    Yes Vreni, the view must be really gorgeous judging from the amazing photos he took.

  7. Great news, I've always wanted to go up there.
    First item on next year's list of things to do in Paris.

    PS Loved your little 'trigger' joke yesterday- was it intentional?
