Before I went to Paris, I thought the Eiffel Tower was just ugly.

I still think it's ugly, but now I know it also has a quite impressive physical presence when you're basically standing right under it that doesn't really come through in pictures. I still wouldn't want to live near it, though.

I can see how it could be seen as ugly, I mean it is mostly metal beams, but I like to think that some of it's beauty comes from what it represents and it's history

it's old as fuck

Now I wanna see Godzilla plowing through Paris.

I'd like to see that, after some hard work destroying half the city simply by existing, Godzilla takes a break to eat a croissant

Exactly, the way it's pointy and triangle-ish, who could get it confused?

Another hint are the people in typical French Haute Couture.

It's crazy to think that Japanese culture has become so globally popular even the French have acquiesced to it and made the Eiffel Tower the spitting image of the Tokyo Tower.

It's a shame they couldn't be more original

It sometimes rain in France right? Hence the stylish umbrellas
