~Travel~ (France)

France is four-fifths the size of Texas and has many famous landmarks, over the years it has become a popular place for tourists because of its beautiful structures like the Eiffel Tower and the Cathedral of Notre Dame. France's capital is one of the most well known french cities, Paris.

 ~The Eiffel Tower~
The Eiffel tower is one of the most recognisable structures today. In 1889 it was built as an exibitation tower and was also made to be an entry arch for the world fair . It was not meant to be a permanent structure but it still remains standing  today.


The Eiffel tower is often called the iron lady in france (la dem de fer). This famous tower stands 984 feet off the ground. Thats seven stories high! One of the cool things about the Eiffel tower is inside the first and second floors there are restraunts.
