Paris

Right from the beginning, even before it was the main seat of the Kings. The original Louvre was a fortress, part of the defences of Paris, built in about 1200. The names seems to derive from louverie - a wolf's lair.

130 it was opened in 1889 for the Fair marking the centenary of the Revolution.

The Eiffel Tower construction started in 1887, and ended in 1888. Although most people think the Eiffel Tower was made of steel, it was actually made out of puddled iron, which is a type of wrought iron melted. The Eiffel Tower was made out of 1808 pieces of puddled iron that were riveted together.

The Eiffel Tower was built for the entrance for the World Exhibition, which was a celebration for the French Revolution. The Tower is now a national momentum of Paris. The many changes include a 160 meter long thermometer attached to the side of the tower, a skating rink on the first floor, a television antenna placed on top of the tower, a meteorology (weather) laboratory at the top of the Tower, and a printing press for a newspaper on the second floor.

there is no train to the Eiffel tower.

No, the pyramid is the main entrance to the museum.

The Eiffel Tower is a TV Antenna, tourists destination, and sometimes has special functions. There is a restaurant at the top.

Most hotels have a website where you can have a look at the premises and the service. They also offer online booking. If you are wary about the hotel standards, pick any hotel out of the various hotel chains (wide range of prices depending of the hotel type) of the ACCOR group.

In order to prevent plaster of Paris from breaking up one can take chopped up fiberfill and placing it in the mixture. Also make sure the plaster of Paris is properly mixed as this will prevent it from breaking.

Advantages: you live close to most stores and places and you don't need to travel very far to get to places

Disadvantages: it is very loud and noisy because of the cars but if you live in a closed neighborhood then you should be just fine. Also the car's smoke might drive you insane if you are a person that prefers to walk instead of drive.

Hope this helped :)

The main religion of France is Roman Catholicism. Over 50% of French citizens are Catholic.

Roman Catholicism teaches salvation through Jesus Christ, the primacy of the pope, the belief in a Trinitarian God, and fulfillment of the ten commandments. This is a list of only it's most basic beliefs, however.

The Eiffel tower opened to the general public on the 15 May 1889. On the first week 28,922 people came up (using the stairs). In the year 1889, 2 million people visited the tower.

It is worth nothing, the French Franc does not exist anymore. The notes could have been exchanged with Euros only until April 2008.

only collectors could be interessed.

there are two different 200 francs notes, the one with Montesquieu and the one with Gustave Eiffel. Take a look at numismatic sites or on eBay.
