Eiffel Tower

What spirit is traditionally used to make a Tom Collins cocktail? The short answer is gin, but let me elaborate a little. The common mix is 3 parts gin, 2 parts fresh lemon juice, a part sugar syrup, and 4 parts carbonated water. The liquid may be poured over ice, with a lemon slice and a maraschino cherry added as a garnish. A tall straight glass is usually use for serving. It is believed to have been invented by a bartender John Collins at Limmers, a London Hotel. It is likely that the brand of gin originally called for in the recipe, Old Tom gin, may have encouraged the name Tom in the drink name Tom Collins. A recipe appeared in the 1876 edition of the Jerry Thomas book Bart Tenders Guide. The last name Collins and a first other name has been used to indicate drinks with other key components, such as tequila in a Jose Collins and Scotch whiskey in a Sandy Collins.

This new wonder is available as a reward in Chapter 8 - A Renaissance Flair. Pick up objects left in Europe's past and the Tower will be yours in no time!

Actually, A giant Guillotine was going to be put up instead of the Eiffel Tower, to commemorate the French Revolutions 100th anniversary, but everyone in the committee voted no for the design of a guillotine.

First and second floors. The Eiffel tower has tworestaurants: Le 58 tour Eiffel, on the first floor; and the Le Jules Verne, on the second floor.

Eiffel Tower: 7 million visitors a year.

Blackpool Tower: 485,000.

Blackpool Tower was refurbished last year, and the management hopes that this will push numbers up to 800,000, still a long way behind M. Eiffel's original.

Eiffel himself called it 'the 300-metre tower'. Those who opposed its construction referred to it condescendingly as 'La Tour Eiffel'. As often happens, the pejorative name stuck.

The challenge was to build a iron tower of over 300 metres.

They built it that way because they wanted it that way.

The Eiffel Tower uses 7.5 kilowatt hours of elec.

Yes I read this in a travel book once.

They are called skyscrapers.

The Eiffel tower is made of metal, which has the property to expand a little when exposed to heat. So as the side of the Eiffel tower which is exposed to sun expands a little, the summit of the antenna atop of the tower moves in the opposite direction. The span of the movement was calculated by Eiffel's team before buiding it, and the move at the very top described an oval of only a few centimeters (the oval could fit inside your dinner plate). That should be even less today as some metal beams most subject to the expansion had been replaced with a different metal to limit that phenomenon and the stress it could put on the structure.

97 metres, since it was built in 1997, when capital of Kazakhstan was moved from Almaty to Astana

There are 126 stairs in the Centre Point Tower in Paris (Eiffel Towers)

Gustav Eiffel had an apartment on top of the Eiffel Tower. It was not in the same ornate style as the tower, rather it was furnished simply in the tastes of a scientist. He had many offers from people wanting to rent out the apartment, but her refused all offers.
