       The Eiffel Tower is beautiful, and a must-see. It is about 1,050 feet high and was the world's tallest

building until 1930. Designed by Gustave Eiffel, it originally had no practical use and was built as a

centerpiece for the World Fair of 1889. Today it is the very symbol of Paris.

       It is made of iron and weighs 7,000 tons. It always seems to be so busy around the tower-crowds of

tourists and lots of street sellers selling souvenirs. Visitors can take the elevator to get to the top of the

tower. On the top of the tower, visitors can enjoy the sunset. The sunset is beautiful and amazing.

       On the top of the tower, visitors can get a 40-mile view, the twinkling nighttime lights of the city make a pretty sight, but it is difficult to tell from any landmarks (路标).

       It is a hugely impressive sight at daylight, but at nighttime becomes magical. It shines with 20,000

lights which sparkle from dusk until 2 am, a real visual (视觉的) treat.
