Is the Eiffel Tower overrated?


Yes and no. I’ve been all over the world and Paris is one of my favorite big cities, it’s not like it is in the movies but it is a very special city. It’s not too dirty and the buildings are beautiful. There’s plenty of annoying tourist traps and all that stuff. The Eiffel Tower is breath taking at night, and the long grass area before is is relaxing, surprising for such a big city.
Kinda, from seeing it in picture, but I guess I have to see it with my own eyes to truly answer that
It looks pretty beautiful, i went there a few years ago however if you want to go into the eiffel tower you will have to wait a long time. Sadly they put sound barriers up so it didn't look so good when you were standing underneith it.
So it looks beautiful from distance but if you wanna go in you'll have to wait a long time.
You have to appreciate it in the context of its creation. Of course, today we can build much more impressive structures, but at the time it was built, there was nothing like it, and that made it a marvel, enough to become THE symbol of Paris.
What it is today is not nearly as important as what it represents.

I don't think it is, no. When you get up close to it, it's quite a sight.
Nope! My photo.
Probably as overrated to the French as the Vegas strip is to me.
I doubt it's overrated. I would like to visit someday.
In a sense, yes. It's nice to look at, especially in person, but spending money to go to the top is foolish.
I thought it was until I saw it with my own eyes and realized how giant it actually was and how terrifying and amazing it felt to be at the top of it.
It is pretty cool going up top and viewing the city from there, maybe to people living there would think it’s overrated
I think so yes. It's just a bunch of iron. There are FAR more interesting sites in France
Pretty much. I saw it, but I definitely don’t think it’s worth the lines and cost to go up
No I dont believe it is, plus you should always take in to account when it was built.
i hope i could visit it someday. it is beautiful and a symbol of Paris, the city of Light.
In Paris.. I should SAY NOT. lolxxoo
Just about all tourist attractions are.
