a) For tourists b) So it's not hit by a plane.
The Eiffel Tower in Paris is 300m high and is made of steel. Between Summer and Winter its height changes by as much as 7.5cm. This is because in: a) SUMMER, due to the heat the attractive forces become slower and unable to hold the molecules at the correct places so we get shorter. b)WINTER, the opposite process to the above takes place in Winter and is known as contraction. Notice than in hot, Summer sunny days, due to the same phenomenon, the side of the tower exposed to the sun shows some dilatation; owing to that dilatation following the course of the sun, the Eiffel tower summit looks smaller a it but its just us getting taller.
Eiffel Tower has NOT been "accepted to be listed as a World Heritage Site". It has been listed AS A (small) PART OF the site of "Paris, Banks of the River Seine" which IN TOTAL a. Represents a masterpiece of human creative genius b. Exhibits an important interchange of human values in architecture, technology and town planning c. Is an outstanding example of an architectural ensemble or landscape
As the crow flies the distance from the Eiffel tower to Eurodisney is 22 miles (37 km).If you want to travel from the tower to Disney, head to the RER C nearby. Change at Saint Michel RER B, and change again at next stop Chatelet, for RER A towards Marne-la-Vallée Chessy. There you are at the door of the parks. The overall trip should take one hour. Don't be afraid, this is actually well signposted and simple.
No. Like there is not train direct from JFK to the Empire State Building or from Heathrow to Big Ben. You need to take the OrlyVal (which is a sort of automatic subway servicing airport terminals and connect to RER B line. Take it in North Bound (direct CDG Airport) and stop at Denfert-Rochereau Station. Transfer to Metro line 6 to "Etoile". And stop at Trocadero. Get out, and now you are in front of the Eiffel Tower.
We've the Zenith Tower B is a building found at Busan in South Korea .
You take the RER ligne B (Direction Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse) to Saint Michel, change onto the RER ligne C (Direction Versailles) and get off at Champ de Mars (at the rear end of the train).
