Eiffel Tower reopens
Landmark to be lit in the bleu, blanc, rouge of the Tricolour until tomorrow night
THE EIFFEL Tower has reopened to the public after it was closed following the shootings on November 13.
After switching off its illuminations on Saturday as a sign of mourning, last night and for the next two nights, the tower will blaze the blue white and red of the French Tricolour.
The tower will be illuminated each night until 1am.
In June the tower officially opened its renovated first floor, which includes portions of glass flooring, lounges, bars and restaurants.
