Reviewed By PWMcC - Newtownabbey, United Kingdom
Whilst this is a bit of a journey from the other tourists attractions it is well worth a visit for the views. It is in La Defense which is commercial / business area. There is a shopping centre near by and places to eat and drink. You get to the viewing gallery by a glass lift which goes up the middle of the arch. Before you go outside there is a good exhibition which explains the history a s building of the arch. The viewing galley gives excellent views across the city and you can get good photos of the Eiffel Tower. The viewing gallery has now for sun loungers so you can sit and relax whilst enjoying the view. There is a cafe and gift show. I have visited before and would do so again just for the views. There are also excellent views of the arch itself from the steps either side where you can sit and relax or people watch !
2. Moulin De Sannois
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 29 reviews
The Moulin is located at an altitude of 162 m, at the top of the Mont Trouillet hill which offers a wide panorama. The hill overhangs, in the South, the valley of the Seine which extends until Paris. To the north, the Montmorency valley is bordered to Saint-Leu by a ridge of wooded hills that gives the landscape a rural aspect. This contrasting landscape mixes today the charm of the past with modernity. Near the Mill, there is the Maison du Meunier. The whole is protected as a "site of artistic or picturesque character" by order of February 5, 1934. The mill is registered in the supplementary inventory of historical monuments since May 12, 1975.

Pont de Sully is a nice long metal bridge, crossing the River Seine, over the bottom "nose" of Ile Saint Louis. We walked the length of it, only once, and loved the views. It is a great spot from where you can enjoy lots of amazing views, particularly of Notre-Dame Cathedral.
