Altaïr viewing a city from a View Point.

In Assassin's Creed, View Points are high structures that over look the surrounding terrain, found in the Kingdom and all the cities, excluding Masyaf. When climbed and activated with your eagle vison, they will uncover a portion of your map and show points of interest within the uncovered area, including Interrogation, Eavesdropping, Pickpocketing, and Assassin Informant Investigations, as well as Save Citizen optional missions. In addition, activating one View Point will reveal the locations of all the other view points in the city (or the Kingdom), placing an eagle icon representing each one on your map.

View points often take the form of watchtowers, turrets of castles and church/temple steeples. Some have archers patrolling them, which can be a problem if they detect Altaïr before he has reached the top, as they can knock him from the tower by throwing rocks at him. A pile of hay is always conveniently placed at the bottom of each view point, allowing you to perform a Leap of Faith to get down.
