Today, visitors can ride elevators to observation platforms with spectacular views across the French capital. Whether admired from nearby cafés or illuminated against the night sky, the Eiffel Tower captures the elegance and charm that define Paris.
Its distinctive iron design also marked a revolutionary moment in architectural history.
