History
The Eiffel Tower was erected in 1889 for the Exposition Universelle and quickly became an iconic symbol of modern engineering; Trocadéro was redesigned in the 1930s to create the viewing terraces that photographers favor today.
Conservation
Large tourist volumes stress public spaces, so stay on paved paths and dispose of waste properly; drone use is restricted and monuments are protected under local heritage rules.
