The Eiffel Tower at Night

Towering at 300 meters high, it stands proud as the symbol of Paris. Gustave Eiffel's masterpiece took his team of engineers and workers 2 years to complete the1800 beams and metal parts using 2.5 million rivets. It was finished on time for the 1889 Universal Exhibition where it was a great success.

 

It has become one of the most visited monuments in the world, each floor offering a unique and unforgettable view.
