Conclusion

I find this building really fascinating and how the people

who helped built it, only took 2 years. I mean it took Noah
120 years to build his ark. Gustave was a really talented man
and I give him credit for designing the Eiffel Tower. It is
such an amazing design. One day I hope to travel France.
Visit Paris, and say that I've been to the Eiffel Tower and
have experienced the view. I also hope to say one day that I
was one of those trillions tourist that have been on the Eiffel
Tower. There is so much more history that I would love to
learn about. Especially the place that it is at. Another reason
for me to visit Paris is to go shopping. Also, to experience the
culture and speak what Mrs. Irwin taught me.
