2nd Visit to PARIS: Tuileries Garden , Louvre Pyramid and Eiffel Tower at night / Family Travelogue 15 June 2015

view of Eiffel Tower from Trocadero, Paris, France
The Iron Lady is lit up from sunset to 1am/2am (in summer) and twinkles for 5 minutes every hour.

We had  spent almost a week in Paris during our 2013 Europe tour., two years before this trip.  We would  have gone directly to London from Brussels,  we had thought though, it could be a  regret not to stop by Paris even for a night.  More so, a visit to the very first store of Chanel at 31 Rue Cambon.  In 2013, we purchased our bags at its branch at Galeries Lafayette.
