The Montparnasse Tower Observatory offers a truly unique experience: two incredible viewpoints for a breathtaking panorama of the City of Lights. First, the indoor observatory on the 56th floor gives you a front-row seat to the majestic Eiffel Tower. The entire space is made of glass, offering a refreshing and crystal-clear view of this iconic landmark.
But the real thrill begins when you step onto the rooftop terrace! At a dizzying 210 meters above the city, you’ll be treated to a 360-degree view of Paris. Imagine gazing at the Louvre, Les Invalides, Sacré-Coeur, Notre Dame Cathedral, Montmartre, and the Pantheon all at once, all against a breathtaking backdrop of Parisian architecture.
Imagine this: the sky starts to change, the city lights begin to twinkle, and the Eiffel Tower starts its nightly light show, all while you sip champagne with someone special. What a truly magical experience! And you’ll get there in style, taking the fastest elevator in Europe to the 56th floor in just 38 seconds.
Rooftop Views & A Toast to the City
You’ve seen the beauty of Paris from the 56th-floor observation deck, but now it’s time to ascend one more level to the rooftop for an even more exhilarating experience. The rooftop offers an unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower, making you feel like you’ve truly stepped into a French postcard.
The rooftop bar is open during pleasant weather, letting you savor a glass of champagne while enjoying the panoramic vistas of the city. The bar operates mainly during spring and summer and is open from 1 PM to 10:30 PM. But even if the rooftop bar is closed, you can grab a beer at the 360 Cafe located on the 56th floor and soak in the mesmerizing nighttime view of the city from the rooftop.
The Perfect Time for a Parisian Sunset
Paris is famous for its purple skies, a breathtaking sight you won’t find anywhere else. For the ultimate experience, we recommend entering the Montparnasse Tower at 5 PM. This is the perfect time to witness the transition from sunset to night, as the city bathes in a warm, golden light. This is also the most popular time to visit, so be prepared for crowds!
But don’t worry about missing out on the beauty of the night. Just wait until the sun goes down, and watch as Paris transforms into a glittering wonderland under the twinkling lights!
A Romantic Dinner with a View
If you’re looking for a special dining experience, then you must visit Ciel de Paris, the restaurant located on the 56th floor. At night, the restaurant is bathed in a beautiful, romantic glow, adding to the already breathtaking city views. The menu features American-style dishes like steak and pasta, with prices ranging from 80,000 to 150,000 won.
It’s a little on the pricey side, but when you consider the unique setting and the incredible views, it’s an experience you won’t soon forget.
