Iron Lady

Ahhh Paris! The tower stands 320 metres (1,050 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-story building. La Tour Eiffel, nickname La dame de fer, the iron lady is a puddled iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars. Built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World’s Fair, it is named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower.
