Day 3: Les Quatre Temps and Views From Top Of Eiffel Tower
Visiting the fashion capitol of the world
and not buying anything does not sound sensible. I really really wanted to buy
something, may be a purse or a dress or something. Of course we are on budget
and wanted to limit my spending.

Shop
at Les Quatre Temps:
Finding a shop/mall that gives a great deal
is next to impossible at Paris. After doing extensive research, my husband
found a shopping mall almost very far from the city, Les Quatre Temps. We
decided to give it a try. So, on the third day our morning plan was to visit
this mall. This shopping center was connected to La Défense metro station.
Even in this mall it was difficult to find
a good deal. I actually wanted to buy a handbag. But could not find anything
that was less than €100. I felt it was
not ‘worth’ it. So ended up not buying any handbag. I did however, find a good
deal at a store (closing sale). So I ended up buying a skirt. That was it for
shopping :(. We completely forgot to explore La Grande Arche de La Defense, which was very close this shopping mall
and a modern take on ‘Arc’, which geographically aligns with Arc de
Triomphe and Louvre Museum.
After having some tit-bits to eat at the
mall, we returned to our hotel room and for the first time we got some rest. We
slept for a couple of hours and were fresh for the Eiffel Tower visit. Being
smart this time, we left early around 4:30 p.m.
Where
to buy Eiffel Tower tickets:
If you observe the Eiffel tower, it has
three levels. You can purchase tickets
to any of the three levels. Of course when you are visiting, you should go to
the top. You may buy the elevator tickets online as well. There are audio tour apps
available too.

So, if at all you plan to visit Paris. Make
sure you go to the top most level.
Hope you enjoyed the pics. Coming up the
last day of France tour in the next part. Wait to see some of the beautiful pictures
of the country side of France.
