The Eiffel Tower is a wrought-iron lattice tower on the Champs de Mar, constructed between 1887-1889 and named after Gustav Eiffel, who’s company designed and built the tower. 6 million tourists visit per annum. Its 330 metres high and the tallest structure in Paris. My ticket gave me access to the top floor by lift @ 19.30, with a glass of Moet champagne to enjoy the extensive sights over the city.
