EIFFEL TOWER - Paris

From the "Square of Liberties and Human Rights", tourists have an exceptional view on the capital which has been looked after by the Eiffel Tower since 1889. The "Great Lady" became the universal symbol of the first French city. It is 324 metres high, has 1665 steps and weights 10,000 tons. Each year, 50 tons of painting are used to keep the "iron Lady" as pretty as she is. It's not surprising that Paris stands at her feet!
For a fantastic panorama on the capital, walk up the Eiffel Tower or take the lift. When the weather is fine, you can see 90km round!
The architectural elegance of the capital has its letters patent of nobility in this quarter full of soldiery beauty .
Consistently modern, the Eiffel Tower makes a special effort to surprise visitors. Do not miss the latest futurist, interactive attraction the Eiffel Tower Visitors Galaxy where you take part in the construction of a virtual Eiffel Tower. In conjunction with the Caisse Nationale des Monuments Historiques et des Sites, the Tower offers groups a series of conference tours, highlighting the history of the monument in its time, its contribution to modern metal architecture, and all the scientific and technical applications experimented on the Tower.
