Paris

Many people always say that Paris is the place they would like to visit when they are first asked where they would like to travel. I myself am part of those people; Paris has always been a place that intrigues me. Being a hopeless romantic makes me want to visit the city even more. Paris, France's capital is a major European city and a global center for art, fashion, gastronomy and culture. I would like to go visit the Eiffel tower and would have liked to visit the bridge of love. The Eiffel tower was built as a monument for the 100-year anniversary of the French revolution. The tower was built by Gustave Eiffel’s company, the idea was brought up by Maurice Koechlin one of Eiffel’s employees.  The building took 2 years and it was inaugurated on March 1889, it stood 1,000 feet high making it the highest structure in the world. The bridge of love was a bridge where many lovers would go and attach a lock to the bridge as a symbol of their love. This bridge was recently taken down because of the weight. The locks weight approximately 45 tons and they were messing up the structure of the bridge. The bridge was fist built in the early 1800’s and rebuilt in the 1980’s. Paris is a beautiful city and it was many great places to visit, I would like to drink coffee in one of their cafes and go shopping in their very famous boutiques.
