Champ de Mars
Parks, Trocadéro/Tour Eiffel
Fodor's Review:
This long, formal garden, landscaped at the start of the 20th century, lies between the Tour Eiffel and Ecole Militaire. It was previously used as a parade ground and was the site of the world exhibitions of 1867, 1889 (when the tower was built), and 1900. Today the park is a bit dusty but it's a great spot for pickup soccer, outdoor concerts, a picnic, or just some time on a bench admiring the view of Lady Eiffel. There's also a playground where kids can let off steam.
