The Texas Bucket List - Eiffel Tower in Paris, Texas

Within the Lone Star State’s version of the city of love, sits a 65 feet tall replica of the Eiffel Tower. Built in 1994, the tower was donated by local welders and pipefitters who pieced the model together meticulously for their town. Although it is nearly 1000 feet smaller than the Eiffel Tower in France, it is the only version that can boast of a cowboy hat on top!

😂 That is the most Texas thing to do. "Our [Eiffel Tower] replica is shorter than theirs! We need to make it taller!"

"PUT A [COWBOY HAT] ON TOP OF IT!" 😂

There is also an Eiffel Tower replica at Kings Island, which may be larger than this.

I know enough people from paris texas to know that it's not a nice place, people from there dont just leave, they flee, and they're happy to warn other people about it
