The Eiffel Tower Review

I've been to many attractions that are impressive to see, both man made and natural, and this blew them all away.  It's sheer size and artistic presence just astounded me.  Pictures really don't do it justice. 

Many times when you see a major tourist attraction, like the Grand Canyon or Mount Rushmore, they do have the instant wow factor, but they weren't anything to the Eiffel Tower.  Maybe it's the combination of Paris and everything about that great city that just adds to the experience. 

Make sure you put this on your list of places you must see in your lifetime.  Don't worry about the crowds (or the fact that the restrooms close early!) or costs for going up, as the overall experience is so amazing you won't even notice.
