Bastille Day Fireworks, Eiffel Tower, Paris

Every 14th July France celebrates Bastille day. It’s a national independence day. The streets fill with people, especially for the evening fireworks display at the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Getting up close to the Eiffel tower is impossible. The area is cordoned off as herds of onlookers push to find the best viewing spot.

Fortunately, we found a good location and got some great photos of the fireworks – enjoy!
