According to @ Overseas Network News, on July 5, the French “Marianne” magazine reported that the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France is now rusted and in very bad condition. In preparation for the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Eiffel Tower will be re-maintained and repainted, which will be the 20th repainting of the Eiffel Tower.
It is reported that the maintenance cost of the Eiffel Tower is about 60 million euros, or about 417 million yuan.
But it’s important to note that Marianne magazine said the operation of the Eiffel Tower was hampered by fears of loss of tourism revenue. Businesses are reluctant to close attractions for maintenance for a long time.
It is reported that the Eiffel Tower was once the tallest building in the world and one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world, receiving about 6 million tourists every year.
It is worth noting that CCTV previously reported in March this year that a local spire had been installed on the spire of the Eiffel Tower. With a 6-meter-long communication antenna, such a 133-year-old tower has grown to 330 meters.
The Eiffel Tower stands on the Champ de Mars in Paris, France, next to the Seine River. In order to hold the 1889 World Exposition to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the victory of the French Revolution, the French government conducted a construction tender and finally established the Eiffel Tower.
