About this landmark of Paris did not write unless the lazy, and yet without it is impossible, no trip and no stories about the city. I will try to say something interesting about her story and creator.
Now, almost everyone knows that the tower was built in 1889 by the famous bridge builder at the time of Alexander Eiffel. There were several hundred projects, but the project was the most fantastic Eiffel - none of the members of the jury did not believe that such a structure will withstand even a light wind.
