This is The Eiffel Tower in Paris. The Eiffel Tower stands and 324m tall, which is about the same height as an 81 storey building and it was erected in 1889. It was the tallest structure in the world from 1889 to 1930. More than 200,000,000 people have visited the Eiffel Tower since it was built. And it is the most visited paid building in the world.
It overlooks the courts which are used currently during Roland Garros (the French Open) at the moment I am watching Gael Monfils vs Ernests Gulbis. It is supposedly "Kids day" or as the French would call it "Journee des enfants" at the French open as French children have Wednesdays off of school. However currently Gael Monfils and Ernests Gulbis (Latvian) are putting up quite a fight against each other, so at the moments it is all looking pretty equal!
We are also going to France in the summer holiday, although not to Paris but to Roscoff which is in the North of Brittany on the coast. We are travelling using Brittany Ferries
