The Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower in Pairs is one of the most popular places in the world.
Every year, more than two million tourists
visit this iron tower.
It was built in 1889 by a French engineer, Gustave Eiffel.
It is 300m high, which is nearly 108 stories,
and weighs up to 7000 tons.
until the Empire State Building was built 40 years later.
Before the Tower was built, some French men
did not like Eiffel's design and called it " an eyesore"
They also predicted that it would cost too much
