Now that has to be something - an ice rink (patinoire) on the first level of the Eiffel Tower - 57m above the ground within those famous girders, with the tower "all lit up" and in festive mood. Admittedly the rink is not huge, but they reckon 100 people can get on (or fall over) at any one time! They supply the skates (patins) - free as part of your entrance fee to the tower - 7 Dec 2005 - 1 Feb 2006 from 09.30 to 22.30 daily,
Also at the Eiffel Tower is an exhibition of photographs of the Tower taken by Robert Doisneau, whose moody, usually black and white or sepia photos of Paris capture a romantic, sometimes poignant view of the city and its people. 10 Nov 2005 - 1 Jan 2006.
