among the most famous attractions of paris are arch of triumph, notre-dame de paris and of course its main symbol – the eiffel tower. it was named after gustav eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower in 1889. this tower is made of iron. the tower stands on four legs and has a sharp peak on the top. the tower is the tallest construction in paris and the most-visited monument in the world where you have to pay money to visit it. millions of people go to the top of the tower to get an amazing view of paris.
the eiffel tower is 324 meters tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building. the tower has three levels for visitors, with restaurants on the first and second floor. the third level is a platform, it’s 276 meters above the ground. if you walk around paris in the evening you can enjoy a wonderful view of the lighted eiffel tower. and at some particular moment you can see the lights blinking.

объяснение:
говорят «увидеть париж и умереть». париж – действительно один из самых популярных городов среди туристов. люди со всего мира приезжают сюда, чтобы увидеть знаменитые достопримечательности и почувствовать атмосферу романтики, любви и свободы.
среди самых известных достопримечательностей парижа – триумфальная арка, нотр- де пари, и, конечно, его главный символ – эйфелева башня. она была названа в честь густава эйфеля, чья компания создала дизайн башни в 1889 году. эта башня сделана из железа. она стоит на четырех опорах и имеет острый пик наверху. она является самой высокой конструкцией в париже и самой посещаемой достопримечательностью в мире, где нужно платить, чтобы посетить ее. миллионы людей поднимаются на вершину башни ради замечательного вида парижа.
эйфелева башня имеет высоту 324 метра, примерно как 81-этажный дом. в башне есть три уровня для посетителей, на первом и втором этаже есть рестораны. третий этаж – это платформа на высоте 276 метров над землей. если гулять по парижу вечером, можно насладиться прекрасным видом подсвеченной эйфелевой башни. в один определенный момент можно увидеть, как огни мерцают.
я тоже хочу посетить эйфелеву башню, потому что это одна из самых известных достопримечательностей в мире.
