Eiffel Tower

If you're visiting Paris then odds are you'll notice an odd looking, 300 meter high steel construction called the Eiffel tower.
And if you're anything alike the common visitor of Paris you'll want to get on that behemoth and take stunning, albeit not too original pictures from high up its structure.

With no building nearby you'll be offered an unobstructed view of the city beneath you.
Making it all the way to the summit is not for the faint of heart though. Just try not to think about the 2,500,000 rivets that have been holding 7,300 tonnes of iron together since 1887.

Does the Eiffel Tower grow in summer?

Yes! As a matter of fact, the Eiffel tower's metal construction causes it to expand when it's hot. Although it's not a big difference. On a hot day the tower can extend itself by 15 cm.

Somewhat more pronounced is the effect of the sunlit side of the tower expanding more that the shadow side. This cases the tower to bend a bit, resulting in the peak to lean away from the sun, about 17.5cm
