Eiffel Tower, built to serve as an entrance to the Universal Exhibition of 1889, is among the world's most famous monuments. It consists of three levels offering panoramic views of Paris, Ile-de-France, and beyond. 324 meters (1.063 feet) tall, it used to be the tallest human-made structure when completed.
The landmark has three levels, with the third being 276 meters (905 feet) above the ground. You can get to the lower levels either by stairs or a lift, while the third is accessible only by the lift. For the very best views of Paris landmarks, head to the second level. Note that the first level has a transparent floor.
If you wish to dine or refresh yourself with a drink while admiring the cityscape, visit restaurants on the first or second floor or a bar on the third.
QUICK FACTS: Eiffel Tower was meant to be dismantled 20 years following the construction, but the appearance of the radio and the tower's practical use in this regard saved the monument. Also, the tower was instrumental in intercepting the German communications in World War 1, which proved invaluable in countering their offensive.
