About Trocadéro
Trocadéro offers the most photographed view of the Eiffel Tower in all of Paris - the esplanade directly in front of the Palais de Chaillot frames the tower perfectly across the Seine. The Palais de Chaillot itself houses the Cité de l'Architecture museum and the Théâtre National de Chaillot. This station is a must-visit at both day and night for unobstructed tower views.
