Eiffel Tower:

Europe is one of the place where most tourists visits because of its impeccable beauty. Europe was named after a princess of  greek mythology called “Europa”. Europe has many interesting places to visit, the one place which everyone wants to visit is located in Europe, which is none other than “Paris”. Paris is known as the “City of Lights” because of the Sparkling beauty of the Eiffel Tower.

The Eiffel Tower was built in order to celebrate the 100th year of the French Revolution, at first everyone opposed the construction of the Tower. And even Verlaine nicknamed the Tower a the “Skeleton of Beffroi”. However after the Eiffel Tower was built over 200 million people visited the tower and later it became symbol of French industrial power. And the most interesting part is that because of the thermal expansion, the Eiffel Tower grows towards the sunlight for at least 6 inches during the warmer days.

The funny story behind Eiffel tower is one man named Victor Lustig convinced two investors to buy the tower from him and even he got profit of about $70,000 bribe from the first victim. We have to get permission to take pictures of the tower at night. So Paris is a place where you can witness the beauty of the both light and the dark through the great Eiffel Tower. Related image
