    Landmarks Around The World

    The Eiffel Tower is the most recognizable

    a symbol of France. Named after its designer,
    Gustave Eiffel, it is a premier tourist
    d estination, with over 5.5 million visitors per
    year.

    In 1631 the emperor Shah Jahan built the


    Taj Mahal in memory of his wife Mumtaz,
    who died in childbirth. This building is
    considered the most beautiful building in
    the world.

    The Chinese worked on the Great Wall for over


    1700 years. In turn, each emperor who came to
    power added pieces of the wall to protect their
    empire. Today, the Great Wall still stands. It can
    be seen from space, it’s that big!
