The Eiffel Tower is a very famous tower in Paris, France. It was named after the engineer who
designed and built it, Alexandre Eiffel. The tower was built in 1889.
Alexandre Eiffel was asked to build the tower when France decided to have a big fair to
exhibit its goods and wares. The tower was to be located in the middle of the fair as a special
attraction. So, Eiffel designed the tower and soon began to build it, using iron beams and bolts.
When the structure first started to take shape, the people of France did not like it. They thought it
looked like a giant skeleton and was not attractive at all. However, when the tower was finally
completed and lighted up at night, the people quickly changed their minds. It was an enchanting
sight and looked like a tower made of lace.
The Eiffel Tower is sometimes considered one of the seven wonders of the modem world. It
is 300 meters high and people can take an elevator all the way to the top. From the tower, they
can get a marvelous view of the city and the River Seine which runs through it. Besides the
elevator, there are steps which lead all the way up the tower. For those who are energetic, they
can use these to climb up. It is very windy at the top of the tower and can be very cold at times
because it is only built by iron beams. There are no walls to keep the wind out.
