✦ What You Need to Know Before You Go to the Eiffel Tower
Certainly, there is no complete visit to the city of Paris without a visit to the Eiffel Tower.
It was built by engineer Gustave Eiffel for the Exposition Universelle similar to Belgium’s Atomium for Expo ’58.
✦ The Opening Hours
The tower is opened from 9 A.M
✦ For the Sportive
The sportive people can opt to walk up the stairs to level two, as the queue is always shorter.
This is a great workout, and it also provides a different perspective on the tower’s construction. Also, there are interesting information boards along the way and I can’t forget to mention, the panoramic view of the city of Paris.
