The Eiffel Tower is obviously a fantastic monument. However in the last 5-6 years they have heavily ramped up security and to get to it now is not only tough but also it's taken away a lot of its charm and beauty.

Also, side note. Never go up with a 2 person pushchair! They say you can go up with pushchairs but if you do you will have the time from hell!
