Last summer I had chance to visit Paris. That attracted me most was the Eiffel Tower, which has become a symbol of France. I was deep impressed by its height. I have never seen such a tall building ago! It is made of iron and it is about 10,000 tons in weight. There are 1,665 step from the bottom to the top. Climb the tower made me very tired, and I was very excited. I took a lot of photos in Paris.

I have much memories and experiences to share with. I am so lucky to have seen such a culture so different from my own. I will remember my trip in France forever!
