How tall is the eye full tower?
From your question, I believe you are asking about the height of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The official website lists the initial height (when it was built) as 312 meters (~1024 ft) and the current height with antennas as 324 meters (~1063 feet).I found the answer to this question using a simple Google search. I started at the google homepage:http:/www.google.comI then searched for "Eiffel tower" (without quotation marks). While the first returned result was a wikipedia article that listed the height of the tower, I wanted to check the answer against an authoritative source. The second result is the official Eiffel Tower website:http:/www.tour-eiffel.fr/teiffel/ukOn the left hand side of the page is a navigation bar. I clicked 'Documentation' and 'All you need to know about the Eiffel Tower'. This opened a PDF document that lists many interesting facts about the tower, its history, and a biography of its creator, Gustave Eiffel. You will need Adobe Acrobat reader to open this document - but I will include a link to it below:http://www.tour-eiffel.fr/teiffel/uk/documentation/pdf/about_the%20Eiffel_Tower.pdf?id=4_11Another fun thing that my google search turned up is a live webcam of the Eiffel tower. You can find that here:http://www.earthcam.com/france/paris/I hope that answers your question!
