The Eiffel Tower in France is world famous. This tower in the Champ de Mars area of Paris is built entirely of iron. The tower is named after Gustave Eiffel.
The tower was built in 1889 as the entrance to the World's Fair.
The World's Fair was organized to celebrate the centenary of the French Revolution. But since then, the Eiffel Tower has become a cultural symbol of France and is regarded as one of the most unique structures in the world.
The height of the Eiffel Tower is 320 meters.
There are three levels for visitors to the Eiffel Tower. Stairs or elevators can be used to access the first and second levels. But to go to the third level one has to use the lift.
