The Eiffel Tower is the symbol of Paris and France, and the climb up to the Eiffel Tower is one of the most iconic things to do in Paris.
One of the most famous landmarks in Paris, it was designed by Gustave Eiffel for the World Fair held in Paris in 1889. The Eiffel Tower is a feat of 19th-century engineering: huge, spectacular, unique, and (for some) incredibly romantic.
