Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #1219 Eiffel Tower 3
Instructions
Few  things  symbolize  Paris  like  the  Eiffel  Tower.  It  is  found  on  postcards,  paintings,  books,  tee-shirts.  Even    furnishings  like  lamps  are  fashioned  into  the  recognizable  shape.  Of  course,  a  trip  to  Paris  simply  isn't  complete  without  a  trip  to  the  Eiffel  Tower.  It  really  isn't  the  most    thing  in  Paris,  though,  despite  its  .  There  are  many  attractions  that  are  far  older  with  a  much  richer  history.  There  are  more  romantic  (and  less  crowded)  spots.  There  are  even  better  views  of  the  city  (climb  the  stairs  at  Notre  Dame,  go  up  the  Tour  Montparnesse,  or  go  to  the  top  of  the  Arc  de  Triomphe).  You  also  do  not  physically  have  to  visit  the  Eiffel  Tower  to    it.  Anywhere  in  central  Paris  is  almost  sure  to  feature  a  view  of  the  architectural  wonder.  If  you  do  go,  you  can  climb  to  the  second  floor,  or  take  an  elevator  to  the  top.  You  will  have  to    in  line  for  one  of  the  two  elevators,  although  trips  are  around  8  minutes  apart  between  the  two.  Avoid  the  masses  by  going  early  in  the  morning  on  weekdays.  Visit  the  first  floor  for  displays  on  the  tower's  history,  to  send  a  post  card  right  from  the  tower  (there  is  a  postal  branch  there)  or  to  dine  at  the  Altitude  95  restaurant.  On  the  second  floor,  visit  the  more  upscale  Jules  Verne  restaurant.  Both  levels  have  souvenir  shops  and  Internet  kiosks.  At  the  top,  get  a  view  of  the    (and  there  are  panoramic  guides  to  tell  you  what  you  are  seeing).  This  is  so  high-up,  though,  it  can  be  difficult  to  make  things  out.
