It was one of the first Cathedrals which used the "Flying Buttress." It's widely known as one of the most famous Gothic Architecture Buildings in the world.

4. Arc de Triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile or short just Arc de Triomphe is a Must-See attraction in Paris. It's located in the western part of Paris right at the end of the famous "Champs Elysee" but you can get there easily by the Metro.12 streets leading to that gigiantic building, what makes it even better. It was built between 1806-1836 in honor for those who fought during the napoleonic wars. If you want to go on top of it, be aware that they are a lot of stairs you have to climb. The view you get is spectacular and breathtaking, especially right when the sun goes down.

1. Eiffeltower
The Eiffeltower was built by Gustav Eiffel for the Exposition Universelle in 1889 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the French revolution. After only two years of construction it opened in 1889 and since then, people come from all over the planet to see that attraction. You should definetely see it by night because it's even more romantic. I can't believe - and I guess nobody can- a trip to Paris without seeing the most iconic building.
Location: Champ de Mars, 5 Avenue Anatole France, 75007 Paris, Frankreich
Opening hours: 9.00 - 00.00 (*summer)
Price: if you wanna go up, it depends on the level (5€ to 13€)
