The Eiffel Tower
Categories : Leisure, published on : 4/11/23
The "Iron Lady" is without a doubt the most famous monument in the world. The Eiffel Tower was built between 1887 and 1889 by Gustave Eiffel's company for the 1889 World Fair. During the construction the project was critisized by some of France's leading artists and intellectuals for its design, considered ugly and resembling a «large giraffe full of holes». Once the construction work was completed, it became a huge success and today is the most visited monument in the world boasting no less than 7 million visitors a year. The Eiffel Tower is a definate must-see during your stay at the Hotel Le Jardin Le Bréa.
