My favorite spots for the best Eiffel Tower photo

There is so much information about Paris an Eiffel Tower that it’s unlikely you will learn something new from this post. But I still hope you’ll find it entertaining and useful.

Here is the map with my favorite spots. The numbers on the map correspond to the numbers in the description.

1. Rue de l’Amiral Hamelin

Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/5kohzA8Ki29xPNiL8

The location is perfect for filming videos and reels without crowds.

2. Trocadero Square

Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/CTrLGpG5QkRF51kZ9

The iconic location for the best Eiffel Tower, unfortunately super crowded at any day any time.

3. Avenue de Camoens

Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/UsZgmK9VAwuNVNnd8

A small location popular among the photographers.

4. Avenue de New York

Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/4o96PFUhCGfwPY7v5

This street offers multiple viewpoints on Eiffel Tower.

5. Pont de Bir Hakeim

Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/siDoRXP6XVaQ5Tts7

The bridge with a view on the river and Eiffel Tower.

6. Avenue de New York

If you follow the Seine River embankment from the Bir Hakeim bridge towards Trocadero you will see lots of spots where you can sit and observe Eiffel Tower, take nice photos, or have a picnic. In my opinion it is also the best spot to observe the Eiffel Tower illuminations. The Tower lights are automatically on as soon as it gets dark (at the end of June it was around 11.00 pm) and until 11.45 pm. At the beginning of every hour for 5 minutes you can enjoy the legendary Tower sparkles.
