Tour Maine-Montparnasse (Maine-Montparnasse Tower), also commonly named Tour Montparnasse, is a 210-meter (689 ft) tall office skyscraper located in Paris, France, in the area of Montparnasse. Constructed from 1969 to 1972, it is the tallest skyscraper in France and the ninth tallest building in the European Union.[citation needed] In the future, it may be surpassed in height by the Tour AXA (225 m), and later by Tour Phare, Tour Signal and Tour Generali (approximately 300 meters).

Our co-worker Stan gave us some tips before we left, and lent us his guide book. The most useful tip was, don’t bother going up the Eifel Tower if you only have 2 days, and don’t want to spend the whole trip in a queue. Go instead to this place, and see Paris360. Its basicly, a viewing galery on top of the tallest building in France, and you can see the whole city. From way up there, the view is spectacular, and you can see how straight the roads are, how beautiful the city is. Only 9 Euro. No 4 in Nicks’s must do list.
