11、 A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower. To get the most out of your visit, read our tips below:
Visit at Night
Riding up the Eiffel Tower at night and looking out over the streets of Paris, you’ll see why Paris is known as the “City of Light”. At street level,the spotlights on the top of the Tower zoom across the Paris skyline, and the reflections(倒影) of the Tower in the Seine are sights not to be missed.
Purchase Your Ticket in Advance Online
Bypass the long ticket lines at the Eiffel Tower by purchasing your ticket online from the Eiffel Tower website. You’ll pick a time to visit, and then select whether to print out the ticket or display it on your phone or iPad a convenient option if you buy your ticket in Paris without easy access to a printer.
Don’t Bring Valuable Objects with You

live with his mother early on Saturday, the police said.
Five people living in the house in Jonesboro, 17 miles (28km) away from the South of Atlanta, were caught by the police,among them the boy’s father,Gregory,and a woman, said Sergeant Kevin Hughes of the Clayton County police.
“ Gregory and Samantha Joy Davis were facing charges of false imprisonment,abuse on children and attacking an officer,”he said,“adding that three teenagers in the house were also facing charges. ”
“The boy’s mother clearly had reported him missing to the child welfare but not the police, and no missing person’s report was found in Clayton County,”Hughes said. “And the teen was able to get a phone recently and told his mother his whereabouts,” authorities said.
“Clayton County police went to the house on Friday to look for the 13-year-old boy but Gregory and Davis said they had no information about the boy,” Hughes said.
Several hours later, police came back and again searched the house. While the police were in the house, the boy called his mother, who told officers where her son was hidden in the house, Hughes said. “ They discovered him hidden behind a false wall in the inside part of the house,” he said. “The boy appeared to be in good physical health and was reunited with his mother, who had come to Georgia from out of the state,” Hughes said.
Neighbors in their quiet, well-kept Jonesboro neighborhood said the family moved in about six months ago and kept to themselves. The 13-year-old boy always seemed to be home and did not appear to go to school, they said.
