excellent

[sameh111, 10/01/2012] Did not satisfy one of my relatives ascend the Eiffel Tower with me because of what they heard for the rise in towering,so I decided to go and two of my friends only. we had bought tickets in advance via the Internet avoid waiting in queues. the trip was very nice but we want to go at night but we went in the morning so as not to disrupt the visit with us for the rest of the parameters. the atmosphere was really fun and the views over Paris from the tower is very amazing. Me and my friends were not afraid, despite the altitude of the tower, But the bad thing was we came back I could not go [more]

[aligarcia1988, 03/11/2010] The view from the top of the Eiffel Tower are spectacular. Too bad you have to queue up, plus it's not cheap

perfection!

[galibali, 24/08/2009] Whatever you heard or saw about Eiffel Tower is not enough. This is an outstanding monument at the heart of outstanding city. I can write here engineering description, but i won't. I'll talk only about my feeling when i get there. The crowd, the hour spent on waiting and so on, everything is forgotten when you get on the top. The view will leave you speechless and breathless. Paris is a wonderful labyrinth with curving river and green places. I saw it from the plane, but from Eiffel Tower, the view is the best. I think this is one of the top places to visit, nevermind how much it is described, [more]

The half-page article reveals a few historical anecdotes about the Eiffel Tower, including an aborted attempt by hijackers to smash a plane into it in 1994. It further says that six million people visit the Tower every year, and it is the only major Paris tourist monument that makes a profit. In Summer 2003 20.000 new lights had been installed to illuminate the worlds most popular tourist monument. Finally the article mentions a few statistics about the Eiffel Tower.

The author described the Eiffel Tower as being "one of the most recognizable structures in the world". He states that the Eiffel Tower was never meant to be permanant and they only reason it was saved was "the advent of radio - as the tallest structure in Europe, it made a perfect spot to place a radio antenna " The author states that on a clear day the Eiffel Tower can be seen from "65km (40 miles) away". He continues to say that "the tower unlocked the almost unlimited possibilities of steel construction". The author continuse to say that in 2004, it became possible to ice skate with [more]

Erena tells us that she has visited the Eiffel Tower twice, an experience she found "exciting". She writes that the views from the tower are "absolutely spactacular" but found out that it is "a bad idea" to reach the top over the stairs "if you are afraid of heights" and also found it "very tiresome". She also comments on the view from the first platform which she thinks is "really nice" and believes that the tower is "a must see" when in Paris.
