 The Eiffel Tower is in Paris, France. It’s one of the most famous landmarks in the world.


*Quick facts:*

- Built for: The 1889 World’s Fair to celebrate 100 years of the French Revolution

- Designer: Engineer Gustave Eiffel. His company built it

- Floors: 3 levels you can visit. The 2nd floor and the top are the most popular


*Cool stuff about it:*

- At first Parisians hated it. Artists and writers called it an eyesore. Now it’s the symbol of Paris

- It actually grows about 15 cm taller in summer because the metal expands in heat

- The lights sparkle for 5 minutes every hour after sunset. Super famous at night

- There are 20,000 light bulbs and it gets repainted every 7 years to prevent rust


*What you can do there:*

- Go up to the top for a full view of Paris. You can see the Seine, Louvre, and Arc de Triomphe

- Eat at Le 58 Tour Eiffel on the 1st floor or Jules Verne restaurant on the 2nd

- Ice skating rink pops up on the 1st floor in winter


It was supposed to be temporary and torn down after 20 years, but they kept it because of the radio antennas.
