The Lansing Journal Journeys: Eiffel Tower

-

Submitted by Lisa Korajczyk

Lansing Public Library Director Lisa Korajczyk and her husband David spent a couple weeks in Paris, France, touring all the points of interest. When they visited the Eiffel Tower at night, they took The Lansing Journal along.

According to TourEiffel.Paris, “These lights are both for aesthetic and safety purposes since they light the route for visitors and ensure the proper operation of the monument at night.”
