The Eiffel Tower’s Biggest Secret. Uncover the Eiffel Tower’s dramatic evolution from criticized exhibition piece to a beloved global icon that even grows taller in summer. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3o4B5eoAcewBjxvaeC5Rxg?sub_confirmation=1 The Eiffel Tower stands as one of the world’s most recognizable landmarks—an emblem of Parisian charm and architectural brilliance. Constructed for the 1889 Exposition Universelle as a demonstration of cutting-edge engineering, it sparked intense debate among the era’s leading artists and intellectuals, who deemed it an eyesore on the city’s skyline. Yet, the very critics who once ridiculed it couldn’t diminish its allure; over time, Parisians and travelers alike warmed to its unique silhouette. Remarkably, the Eiffel Tower is more than a picturesque photo spot. Its framework, composed of wrought iron, was a marvel in late 19th-century innovation. Believe it or not, the tower can sway slightly in the wind without compromising its structure—an intentional feature by Gustave Eiffel and his team. Even more surprising, it can grow by about 15 centimeters during summer due to thermal expansion, proving its adaptability to the elements. Originally slated for dismantling just 20 years after it was built, the tower’s unexpected transition into a radio transmission site secured its survival beyond the exposition. Now, it welcomes millions of visitors annually, offering panoramic views of Paris from multiple observation decks. The Eiffel Tower’s success is a testament to the transformative power of visionary design and public sentiment—an evolution from reviled newcomer to cherished cultural icon. Today, this once-controversial structure remains an enduring symbol of French ingenuity, romance, and grandeur. Visitors wander its iron lattice, marvel at nighttime illuminations, and dine within its heights. So, next time you admire that iconic iron silhouette, consider the critics it once faced and the innovations behind its lasting fame. Each rivet in its iron frame carries a story of bold ambition—one that still resonates with the modern world’s thirst for progress and beauty. 📂 For The Latest Stories on luxury travel, getaways goods, the rich, companies, Top 10’s, biographies, Lavish History, news, and more 📂 https://www.youtube.com/@Lavishangle 🎉 For business enquires contact us at full4sog (@) gmail dot com 💬 Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comments below.

Another one from Blackpool. I’ve not really been anywhere else of late. The Blackpool Tower opened to the public on 14 May 1894. When it opened, Blackpool Tower was the tallest man made structure in the British Empire. #blackpool #blackpooltower #seaside #tower #lancashire #englishseaside #historicstructures (at The Blackpool Tower) https://www.instagram.com/elizabeththeiris/p/CYesP7eMfX2/?utm_medium=tumblr

The moment anyone in my family hears about Gauhati the only place they connect themselves is Kamakhya and this was how I got introduced to this shaktipeeth. I also remember telling my good friend from Gauhati that, if I happen to visit Gauhati I'll definitely visit Kamakhya... And here I was, after 6 days at Meghalaya where spirituality meant connection with nature, Kamakhya can definitely bring out the spiritual you... This ancient temple which according to historians was built between 7-9 century can definitely puzzle one with the architecture. The sculptures and the engravings are such detailed that one has to just sit in awe looking at those intricacies and imagine the kind of talent those great artisans possessed... #kamakhyatemple #kamakhya #Gauhati #wanderlust #Assam #assamdiaries #temple #architecture #architecturephotography #instaarchitecture #incredibleindia #travel #instatravel #travelphotography #travelgram #shotonpoco #pocof1 #traveladdict #tripotocommunity #northeastIndia #wanderers #ancient #historicbuilding #historicstructures #mythology #shaktipeeth (at Kamakhya Temple) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2pVmC0poxi/?igshid=921e7p87ib5u
