I've never been to France before, and Paris was the one
place I have always want to visit . If I really have the chance to be there ,
the first thing I will do is to take many photos with the Eiffel Tower .
The Eiffel Tower (French: La Tour Eiffel, [tuʁ ɛfɛl]) is an
iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. It was named after
the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. The
tower is the tallest structure in Paris[10] and the most-visited paid monument
in the world.
The tower stands 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same
height as an 81-storey building. The tower has three levels for visitors. The
third level observatory's upper platform is at 279.11 m (915.7 ft) the highest
accessible to the public in the European Union. Tickets can be purchased to
ascend, by stairs or lift (elevator), to the first and second levels. The walk
from ground level to the first level is over 300 steps, as is the walk from the
first to the second level. Although there are stairs to the third and highest
level, these are usually closed to the public and it is usually accessible only
by lift. The first and second levels have restaurants.
