Glorified as one of the 'Seven Wonders' of the world, few would know that the Eiffel tower may not really represent the French in the very sense. Gustavo Eiffel, the Brazilian architect, took charge of this massive project amidst some disapproval from the French. However, after the completion of this magnificent structure, it is now renowned as the most prestigious idol of Paris.Personally, on being there, it wasn't the imposing altitude that really enticed me. Modern day sky scrapers are ever fighting to match each other when it comes to touching the space. What captured me was the splendid work of art in shaping and balancing such a sleek and curvy structure. Indeed, a lot of thought would have gone in here..
The lighted up tower, shimmering and glowing in the night, is sure to impress everybody in this planet. Three levels of viewing fron the tower throws the 'city of lights' before you, in all its glitter. Restaurants (even ATMs !) function in these levels, for you to relax and relish your time on the top. The lawns in front of the tower is very ambient and offers fantastic coverage of the complete package of the wonder.
