Is there a point in Paris where like 4 sights can be seen, the louvre being one? If so, what's it called?

Question

I think i read somewhere about it, but i'm not sure and have become curious!

Answer 1

Hi! this is the called "le point de tous le monde" and is located next to place concorde.  For 5 euros you can ride up the automated train to the point at the top of the "Hotel Invalides".  From there you can see an incredible thing: the eifel tower, the pantheon, the basilique of montremartre, and the arc du triomphe.  You can also see George Pompideau center from the "Point".

For an extra 5 euros you can take the guided undersea adventure tour and take a mini-submarine underneath the Seine where you will see the original foundation of the city of Paris!  It is just amazing there!

Answer 2

If you go up to the top level of the Centre Georges Pompidou, you can see Sacre Coeur, the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Hotel de Ville, and many other places.  It's especially pretty at night when everything is illuminated.  That must be why Paris is called the City of Light.

Answer 3

Are you speaking of the alignment between the Louvre (and its pyramid), the little Arc de Triomphe at the Louvre, the obelisk, the big Arc de Triomphe and the square Grande Arche at La Defense?  

They're all in a single line, and visible from either end or the center of the street on the Champs-Élysées.  Use a crosswalk!

I've never heard of "le point de tous le monde", and I'm perplexed and doubtful to hear that there is an automated train at Les Invalides, or an undersea adventure tour...  Are you certain?

For general views, the top of Georges Pompidou *is* quite nice, as is the terrace at the Institute de Monde Arabe (behind Notre Dame, and free access).  Also Montmartre is famous for the view from Notre Dame.

Answer 4

I've only been to Paris a few times (years ago) but I think this site will provide you with some GREAT places to see a fabulous view in any direction!

Answer 5

From the middle of the Place de la Concorde - you can see in four different perspectives - the Assemblée nationale southwards, Madeleine Church northwards, Arc de Triomphe westwards, and the Orangerie  which is the continuation of Tuileries & Louvre eastwards
