In the picture you can see the Eiffel Tower – the best known symbol of France and Paris. It was named after Gustav Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower in 1889. This lattice tower is made of puddle iron. The tower stands on four legs and has a sharp peak on the top.
The tower is the tallest structure in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world; 6.98 million people ascended it in 2011. The tower received its 250 millionth visitor in 2010.
The tower is 324 metres tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building. Its base is square, 125 metres on a side.
The tower has three levels for visitors, with restaurants on the first and second. The third level observatory's upper platform is 276 m above the ground, the highest accessible to the public in the European Union.
