Eiffel Tower taken in September 2014 using Fujifilm HS10 EXR.

My goal in Paris was to get one shot of the Eiffel Tower that I haven’t really seen before. Success! I absolutely love how everything is falling over in opposing directions

This photo was taken in Paris on March 22nd 2016. The Eiffel tower had the colors of the Belgian flag (black-yellow-red) after the terror attack in Brussels that happened the same day. 32 people were killed and 340 people were injured in the attack...

A view from the North-Western side of the Eiffel Tower.

Mirador Eiffel de las Navas del Marqués (Ávila). A finales del siglo XIX, Ángela Pérez de Barradas, Duquesa de Medinaceli y XV Marquesa de Las Navas, ordenó construir el Parque del Chalet. Un completo conjunto que contaba con un lago, teatro, fuentes y jardín botánico junto a su chalet de recreo. Apenas a unos pasos de este chalet se levantaría en 1873 una magnífica atalaya contra incendios: el Mirador Eiffel. Eran los orígenes de la actual urbanización de Ciudad Ducal.

Construida con hierro y madera, la antigua atalaya contra incendios fue encargada al taller del famoso arquitecto de la torre de París. Además de apreciar su esbelta estructura de hierro fundido, con una caprichosa escalera de caracol de doble rampa, este mirador permite observar unas vistas privilegidas de los pinares que lo rodean, con las siluetas de Gredos y Guadarrama, al fondo, y el jardín botánico de la Duquesa, a sus pies.

Este mirador es privado.

The Eiffel Tower is an iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris, named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. Erected in 1889 as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair, it has become both a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the world. The tower is the tallest structure in Paris[10] and the most-visited paid monument in the world; 7.1 million people ascended it in 2011. 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. The tower received its 250 millionth visitor in 2010.

The tower stands 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building. During its construction, the Eiffel Tower surpassed the Washington Monument to assume the title of the tallest man-made structure in the world; the Eiffel Tower held the title for 41 years, until the Chrysler Building in New York City was built in 1930. Because of the addition of the antenna atop the Eiffel Tower in 1957, it is now taller than the Chrysler Building (but by 1957, the Chrysler Building was surpassed in height by the Empire State Building, also in New York City). Not including broadcast antennas, it is the second-tallest structure in France, after the Millau Viaduct

You never know when the Eiffel tower is going to pop into view. You can just turn a corner and Bam, there it is.

Tour Eiffel - Paris - France (2009)

La Torre Eiffel (en francès, Tour Eiffel) va ser erigida amb motiu de l'Exposició Universal celebrada a París (França) l'any 1889. Va suposar una fita decisiva en la construcció en ferro. L'enginyer francès Alexandre Gustave Eiffel va projectar aquesta impressionant estructura reticulada de ferro colat.

 

Quan va ser construïda era el monument més alt del món, amb 300 metres d'altura (si se suma l'antena de ràdio que es troba a la part superior, la seva alçada és de 324 metres). Quan la van construir, la torre pesava al voltant de 7.300 tones, si bé avui dia es calcula el seu pes en més de 10.000 t (a causa del museu, restaurants, magatzems i botigues que alberga). Estava previst que la torre arribés als 350 metres, però els veïns es van alarmar per l'amenaça que un edifici tan alt pogués caure, i es van manifestar provocant un canvi de plans.

 

Els 24 últims metres corresponen a una antena de ràdio que va ser afegida molt després. Segons la temperatura ambiental, la cúspide de la Torre Eiffel pot acostar-se o allunyar-se del sòl uns vuit centímetres, a causa de la dilatació tèrmica del metall. D'acord al lloc web oficial del monument, per a arribar al cim cal pujar 1.665 graons (i no 1.792, nombre que alguns prenen, per cert en al·lusió a l'any de la instauració de la Primera República Francesa).

 

El manteniment de la torre inclou l'aplicació de cinquanta tones de pintura cada cinc anys, a efectes de protegir-la de la corrosió. En ocasions, es canvia el color de la pintura (el 2005 la torre mostrava una tonalitat marró). En el primer pis, hi ha consoles que permeten votar l'elecció del futur color de l'estructura. El color original de la torre va ser el groc, encara que avui dia no queda rastre d'aquest color. Es considera que, aproximadament la meitat de les unions que té l'estructura estan realitzades per motius de seguretat, és a dir, que la torre es mantindria en peus encara que fallessin la meitat de les unions entre les seves peces. Això va garantir des del principi la fiabilitat de la Torre, conseqüència del fet que en el moment de la seva construcció molts parisencs tenien por que pogués caure originant una catàstrofe. Entre 1889 i l'any 2004, la Torre Eiffel va rebre més de 200 milions de visitants provinents de la mateixa França i d'arreu del món. La Torre Eiffel és el lloc més visitat del planeta.

The tower is much more complicated than it appears. There are several elevators, stairs and shops all within the tower. It is tall enough to scare off several tourists. The view from the very top is awesome. The fees vary dependent on how high you wish to go.

Paris was really fantastic. We stayed in Le Mariais, great food all over, and wonderful everything in general. Tried some night photos of the Eiffel Tower with mixed success.

Mon meilleur ami me dit toujours "Paris est magique"... mais à propos de football, ce sur quoi on n'est jamais vraiment d'accord... mais lorsqu'il s'agit de la ville en elle-même... je ne peux que lui donner raison !!

 

Fluctuat Nec Mergitur

The Eiffel Tower is a wrought iron lattice tower on the Champ de Mars in Paris. It is named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower.

 

Constructed in 1887–1889 as the entrance to the Exposition Universelle of 1889, it was initially criticized by some of France's leading artists and intellectuals for its design, but it has become a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognisable structures in the world.

 

The tower is 324 metres tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building, and the tallest structure in Paris. Its base is square, measuring 125 metres on each side.

Green in Paris!
