Tips
Large park in Paris, located at the foot of the Eiffel Tower and near the Military School. The name is quite common in many cities and means that it was a place for parades and military maneuvers.
Nowadays the Champs de Mars is very often used as a gathering place for Parisians or visitors, but has also been converted into a 'fan zone' for the 2016 Euro football tournament.translated by

If you want to admire the illuminated Eiffel Tower, especially after dark, then you should definitely visit this huge park. At dusk, if the weather is nice, a number of like-minded people gather here. Enjoying the beauty of the Eiffel Tower at night on a blanket with a bottle of wine, cheese and a baguette is not only fun but also an unforgettable experience.
By the way: Street vendors also sell wine here, but it is overpriced. So it's better to bring your own.translated by•June 10, 2023
