The look of the Eiffel Tower is greatly loved by people today, but things were different when the design was first shown to the public. Many French artists thought that the design was ugly. However, Eiffel did not change a thing. He believed that once it was pleted, people in Paris and visitors around the world would love the tower. He was certainly right. The tower became popular with the public as soon as it opened on March 31st, 1889, two years after the construction (连筑) began. Over 3,000 people came to look at this new tower and even made the effort to climb the l,710 stairs to the top. The 984-foot-tall tower remained the worlds tallest man-made structure until 1930. In that year the l,046-foot-tall Chrysler Building in New York City beat it. Today, the tower houses a number of restaurants on its first and second levels. The third level has been turned into a vast platform (平台). From there visitors can see the entire city of Paris. While visitors are allowed to take the stairs to the first two levels, the platform can only be got to by taking the elevators. To ensure that the Iron Lady always looks good, the tower is cleaned and repainted every eight years. Its an effort that takes a team of 25 workers, an entire year.
