The Eiffel Tower, built in 1889 and named after its designer Gustave Eiffel, has become a global icon of France. It may be a touristy place to visit, but it is well worth it, especially at night as you will soon see! Below are pictures of the tower from the three visits I made — one where I actually ran up to the second floor! Exhausting~! but oh so worth it!
Hmm..yes, another nice view of the tower!

The rest of the way up to the top 3rd floor
Those are people waiting in line for the elevator
On the hour, for just 10 minutes, the Eiffel Tower will sparkle for you.
