Description
117 gigapixels of Paris: the romantic rhythm of everyday life
Many photography projects begin with a plan — but some are born from a fortunate coincidence.
In May 2019, the BigPixel team came to Paris for the Vivatech exhibition. During that trip, the Eiffel Tower marked its 130th anniversary. On 17 May, the sky was clear and deep blue — ideal conditions for capturing the iron tower against the city.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the resolution of this Paris panorama?
117 gigapixels (117 billion pixels), allowing free zoom between the city's overall layout and fine detail — the Seine, districts, crowds and landmarks.
Where was this Paris gigapixel panorama captured?
From the Eiffel Tower's observation level at about 115 meters, on 17 May 2019 — during the tower's 130th anniversary year, under clear skies.
Why 115 meters instead of the 276 m summit?
115 m sits closer to everyday city life — visitors on the Champ de Mars, crowds at the tower base, and boats on the Seine. A higher viewpoint can make the city feel more distant.
Which Paris landmarks can you explore in this panorama?
The Seine and riverboats, Champ de Mars, crowds at the tower base, and in the distance the Louvre, Notre-Dame and historic Parisian districts.
How is this different from ordinary Paris travel photos?
Typical photos capture one angle; this 117-gigapixel view lets you read spatial relationships between the tower, the Seine, open spaces and distant historic landmarks in a single frame.
What was special about the 2019 capture?
The BigPixel team came to Paris for Vivatech, coinciding with the Eiffel Tower's 130th anniversary — a business trip that became an important record of romantic Paris.
