Paris 2024 Summer Olympics – Destination Eiffel Tower
2023 is flying by so fast that it’s hard to believe that we are nearly at the halfway point. But that’s okay because it means that we are just a little over a year away from the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics. The beautiful city of lights will be hosting the XXXIII Olympic games from July 26 – August 11, 2024.
We simply adore Paris here at Sports Feen. We are excitedly looking forward to the games next year. In Paris there is so much to see and to do. We thought it would be fun to talk about the many destinations the city has to offer. If you attend the games be sure to soak up some of the excellent culture, architecture, and cuisine.
To help get you into the Olympic spirit we will be periodically posting Parisian destinations that you can explore to add some fun and adventure to your trip to France. We’ll kick things off with a well-known favorite and one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Eiffel Tower.
The Eiffel Tower is a masterpiece of architectural excellence. It was conceived as part of the preparations for the World’s Fair of 1889. A wager was put forth to see if an iron tower could be built upon a square base 125 meters across and 300 meters tall. The project submitted by Gustave Eiffel, an entrepreneur, Maurice Koechlin and Emile Nouguier, both engineers, and Stephen Sauvestre, an architect, was accepted.

Amazingly it only took 2 years, 2 months and 5 days to complete construction. The tower was enormously popular and successful, receiving 2 million visitors at the World’s Fair. To this day the tower is still a fan favorite with almost 6 million visitors every year.
There are two restaurants, the michelin-starred Jules Verne and the newer venue Madame Brasserie. For your sweet tooth you can head over to the macaron bar Pierre Herme on the second floor. Or quench your thirst at the champagne bar at the top.
It’s a great destination to visit and to ensure that your visit goes as smoothly as possible check out these suggestions from the tower: https://www.toureiffel.paris/en/planning-smooth-visit. Au revoir!
