You all saw it coming… the top sight to visit in Paris is, of course, the world famous Eiffel Tower!

#1 The Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower… Who would have thought it would become the emblem of Paris? Certainly not Gustave Eiffel, who created it to show off France’s technical advances at the 1889 World Faire Exhibition. Can you believe that the Eiffel Tower was supposed to be taken down after the Exhibition? Well, it’s now the most visited monument in the whole world. Go Tower!
