I would like to go to the Eifel Tower in Paris, France, because it is one of the most famous /recognized land marks in the world. Since the Eifel Tower is in Paris, I am very glad, because I have always wanted to go to Paris. The Eifel Tower is 1063 feet (324 meters) including the antennas, now. Initially it was 1023 feet (312 meters) to the top of the flag pole. Building the tower took 2 years, 2 months, and 5 days. They had started building in 1887 and they completed it in 1889. The Eifel tower was built to celebrate the Worlds Fair that was being held in Paris. It was made of puddle iron, not steel. The Eifel Tower leans a tiny fraction in the direction of the sun. The tower “grows” in the heat. It is located in the Champs de Mars in Paris.
