On March 31st, 1889 on the Champs-de-Mars, Paris, France, Gustave Eiffel’s epic project came to life, and was officially unveiled for Paris’ Exposition Universelle.
The tower was commissioned to commemorate the centennial of the French Revolution, with its initial purpose to serve as an entrance arch to the 1889 World’s Fair {Exposition Universelle}.
The tower was to be removed 20 years later, however, as we know it became the symbol of Paris, and 133 years later, she still draws millions of tourists from across the globe.
Best of all ... there is a Champagne Bar at the top of the Eiffel Tower. So if you do venture to the very top for a spectacular view of the City of Lights, then what better way to enjoy the view than a gorgeous flute of bubbles!
Have your visited this Le Tour Eiffel? Did you picnic, photograph, play petanque, cycle, stroll, dance, propose, eat wine and cheese ... the list is endless. We would love to hear your stories and see your favourite photos of your time.
