You can’t talk famous buildings without mentioning this gigantic metal lady. When it was first built, Parisians actually hated it—can you believe that?
They called it an eyesore, a "monstrous" thing made of bolts and girders. Now, it’s the symbol of romance itself. Go figure: the universe has a weird sense of humor, doesn’t it?
What’s cool is that it was only meant to be temporary, like a party decoration for the 1889 World’s Fair. It’s still standing, proving that sometimes, the best things are the ones we almost threw away.
