rue de l'Université

We got up Yeah, we were not going up to the top of the tower or anything.

We went to Rue de l'Université, which is like the best place to see it.

We did do the Louvre, though, and we did it later in the day, attempting to avoid crowds, not knowing that they start shutting down sections of the museum about an hour and a half before the museum actually closes.

So there was a bunch of stuff we wanted to see.

So after we pass this, we walk on down, we walk across the bridge and we make it to the Eiffel Tower, which now has a secure area perimeter.

And on one side of the secure perimeter is the iconic street, the Rue de l'Université, the famous place where you can take the Eiffel Tower picture perfectly between two Parisian buildings.

You know, the one you see on Instagram.

We had to take it.
