The Eiffel Tower is one of the highest buildings in the world. It is 324 meters high. To go up to the top of the building there are two possibilities: 1710 steps or two transparent elevators .Then when you arrived to the top you only have to watch around yourself and see the stunning view of the landscape .Its structure is divided into three levels open to the public. To the southeast of the tower there is a large lawn from which the first hot air balloon flights once departed.

The Eiffel Tower is illuminated by over 350 floodlights, while in the evening it sparkles with over 22,000 bulbs and 900 party lights. The idea of making the tower sparkle was designed to celebrate the transition to the year 2000. A curious aspect is also represented by its color: even if viewed from below the Eiffel Tower seems uniform, in reality the paint is darker in the highest points of the tower. This is to accommodate the perspective and allow the building to have a uniform appearance when viewed from below. However, for its maintenance, 50 tons of paint are needed every 7 years.
