Tour Eiffel

°

The one and only Tour Eiffel.

Finnisch für Anfänger:

EIFFELIN TORNI = Eiffelturm / Eiffeltower




The Tower is very present almost everywhere in Paris.

Locally nicknamed "La dame de fer" (French for "Iron Lady"), 
it was constructed from 1887 to 1889 as the centerpiece 
of the 1889 World's Fair. (Wikipedia) 


The most visited monument in the world

As France’s symbol in the world, and the showcase of Paris, today it welcomes 
almost 7 million visitors a year (around 75% of whom are foreigners), making 
it the most visited monument that you have to pay for in the world.



Old ladies need some fixing regularly.


Oops? No oops, this is kind of a neighbour of the Eiffel.
Pretty cupolas of the HOLY TRINITY CATHEDRAL.
Russian Orthodox Church.
Yes, also a new sight in Paris, inaugurated in 2016.


Check this, when you cross the Alma bridge, the pretty cupolas
are not to be overseen.



Oh, Eiffel Tower in daylight.
 When walking in Paris, along the river Seine.

The tower is 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height 
as an 81-storey building, and the tallest structure in Paris. (Wiki)


And then again at night. When walking in Paris.


I do like this structure.




À bientôt dear tower, hopefully see you soon again!
In the meantime enjoy a virtual tour:

hei, niin hienoja kuvia taas - varsinkin Eiffeli-sarja on kiva. Ja entäs sitten se lila Musiikkitalon seinä! Ihan kuin käärmeitä, oikein pelästyin, että mihin käärmenäyttelyyn te ootte eksyneet. Yritin kopioida sitä kuvaa tänne, mutta ei onnaa.

Kiitos taas pikamatkasta Pariisiin - oli ihanaa.
