Place des Vosges
A peaceful oasis in the heart of busting le Marais, Place des Vosges charms with neatly pruned hedges and graceful fountains. The grassy square and surrounding townhouses were built by Henri IV, and inaugurated in 1612 for the wedding of Louis XIII.

Paris
As the carriage of the Ferris wheel rises into the twilight sky, Paris emerges with a panorama of unforgettable scenes. The Tuileries Gardens give way to the majestic Louvre with its iconic glass pyramid and regal wings, the historic residence of France's rulers. Finally, the Eiffel Tower peeks over the treetops, exposing its full sparkling grandeur as the carriage reaches the Ferris wheel's highest point. From here, the very center of one of the most fabled destinations on Earth, the City of Light stretches out beyond the Champs Élysées, the glistening Seine, the lively Marais, to Montmartre, where in the shadows of Sacre Coeur, joie de vivre fills every cobbled square.
