In addition, you guys, especially for all the lovers out there, really wish to go here with your other half for Paris, France is known to be a romantic place and perfect for couples. Before you go there in the future, let me tell you some interesting facts about this brilliant place.

    The Eiffel Tower is located in Champ de Mars in Paris, France which was built by a company of Engr. Gustave Eiffel. Yes, you already saw it! This tower was named after him. It was built on 1889 as the entrance arch for 1889's World Fair. This has become the cultural icon of France and one of the most splendid structures in the world. Don't you agree? When this tower was built on 1889, it was the highest structure in the world. But nowadays, also because of modernization, it has become the fifth high-rise buildings in France.

    A famous chef named Alain Ducasse held a gourmet restaurant on the second floor of the tower. And if I'm not mistaken, Eiffel Tower has 3 floors (ain't sure though). Gustave Eiffel, on the other hand, engraved the names of 72 French engineers , scientists and mathematician in this tower.

    For all the Science persons out there, Thomas Alva Edison, an american inventor and businessman, visited this place and got amazed by the structure of it.
