FRANCE: Iconic Symbol of Paris

When I think of Paris there are iconic landmarks that come to mind.

Probably the first one that I think of is the Eiffel Tower.

The Eiffel Tower was built for the 1889 World's Fair to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. 

It was also to show off the design, engineering, scientific, technical, innovative and cultural expertise of France.

The Eiffel Tower is one of the most visited paid monuments in the world with about 7 million visitors per year.
