Short videos (“vines”) from the Paris metro (subway) combined into one post. Vine was shut down in 2016, but they keep the videos looping in the archives.
Enjoy the ride (you can turn the sound on)!

Tip: Views of the Eiffel Tower from Paris metro trains can be enjoyed between the Bir-Hakeim and Passy stations, line 6 (no video for now).
That’s it. If you never rode the Paris subway, then you now you have some idea of what to expect. Keep your ticket until you exit the metro!
