7th Arrondissement

On This Page: ↓Landmarks ↓News

Bourgeois-chic and very expensive, the 7th arrondissement is home to several world-famous landmarks and museums. The Eiffel Tower is located in this district.

Landmarks

The unavoidable feature of the district (as well as the city) is the Eiffel Tower built here in the late 19th century by Gustave Eiffel.

Another highlight is the Musée Rodin which houses the scultor's most famous works.

You'll have the fresh wind from the Seine, more than enough space for maneuver and the attention of both tourists and motorists. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you where to get the gear (I don't know). But surely, if skate-sailing is your thing, you do. So, smooth sailing!
