somebody had to

french people be like
>ooh me build big triangle tower
then everybody like
>OHHH THAT IS SO COOL

It literally looks like a mobile phone tower, but it’s so ingrained into culture that people forgot. If it was unveiled today everyone would think it’s an abomination. I guess at the time it was unveiled, few had seen something so ugly so it got a novelty pass.

We Parisians ignore it at best, or dislike it when we notice it. And it was supposed to be temporary.
But the company merchandising it to tourists makes good money, so they lobby...

The Eiffel Tower isn't supposed to be "beautiful", it's just impressive. It's an engineering feat, not an architectural one.

It's a 5g tower

No I like it.

Well you are a lucky fellow, then

all the national euro monuments are kinda pathetic
>eiffel tower (a literal metal garbage pile)
>brandenburg gate (a fucking gate)
>colosseum (it's almost completely in ruins, perfect symbol for italy or poorope as a whole)
>big ben (look it's a big ass clock tower)
>riesenrad (wow a large ferris wheel)

compare that too new worlders
>one world trade center (impressive and modern symbolising the economic might of the US)
>CN tower ( incredibly tall and impressive showing off Canada's modern technological spirit)
>sydney opera house (incredibly memorable symbolising high culture of Australia)

I'd rather have the current design than some abstract "artwork" that celebrates "diversity"

or one of the 340 employees of "société d'exploitation de la Tour Eiffel"

>6 million visitors a year
phew. That's 3 times the population of Paris.

It is ugly indeed. Still an impressive engineering feat for the time.
I couldn't care less about it. It's just part of the scenery

the eiffel tower isn't our national monument, it's probably the notre-dame de paris cathedral or the sainte-chapelle
no one in france thinks the eiffel tower is our national monument

literally everyone thinks of the eiffel tower as your national monument bro. It's what you light up when you wanna sham sympathy for a nation

foreigners' opinions are irrelevant

No one in france thinks the sainte-chapelle is our national monument you schizo

yeah... except the white catholic population (which you clearly aren't a part of)

It's the same as the Tower of Pisa, nobody in Italy regards that as our national monument.

>eiffel tower
that's my home

What happens to the person the tower shines its light at?

Never heard or read anyone saying this before your post, so no

Paris has other problems me thinks.

Eiffel tower: named after an engineer
Statue de la République: named after our current regime

So it's more "national", I'd say. Also the Eiffel Tower is exploited by a private company, hardly national.

Shit, wrong link
