We've all been there.
You've gone to the Eiffel Tower on your first day in Paris. Now you're three hours deep in queues and your schedule for the rest of the weekend has been thrown off.
Then you reach the top of the iconic tower, take in your surroundings, and realise that the very best thing about Paris's skyline is missing from your view.

Scroll on to discover their top 26, ranging from London's Big Ben to the ornate gardens of Manoir d'Eyrignac in France.
