Chapter 140: It's Cold in the Heights

"Well, that's fine!

Denise nodded, she had been to Paris before, and she had basically seen the attractions that should be visited, but considering that this was Lin Quan's first time coming, she still chose to stay and accompany Lin Quan to walk around, and playing alone and traveling with two people, the feeling and mood were completely different. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The two took a shower together, changed their clothes, and then left the hotel, and after checking out, they prepared to go to the center of Paris, there is a saying that if you don't go to the Great Wall, you are not a hero, and if you go to Paris, don't go to the Eiffel Tower to have a look, it is basically the same as not being to Paris.

So the first stop for the two was to go to the Eiffel Tower.

The Eiffel Tower was built in the 20th century, not in the 20th century, but in 1889 by the famous designer Eiffel Gustaf.

The Eiffel Tower is very tall, with four floors and a total height of 324 meters, which was the tallest building in the world in the 19th century!

However, at the beginning of the twentieth century, the Americans used their strong industrial strength to show everyone what it means to raise high-rise buildings from flat ground!

In the first 30 years of the 20th century, American high-rise buildings rose one after another, with astonishing speed and terrifying heights......

But the Americans didn't stay complacent for long, and when China began to rise in the second half of the 20th century, the world was shocked by the speed of China's infrastructure construction.

The amount of cement and steel bars consumed by the Chinese in just a few years is more than the total consumption of Americans in a hundred years, and the speed is stunning, and it is called the miracle of the East.

The Eiffel Tower is located on the banks of the Seine and is the tallest building in Paris.

Cities in European countries are not the same as American cities, the buildings here are not very high, many buildings are very old, some are more than 100 years old, some are more than 200 years, some are even medieval buildings, and the government of Paris has imposed restrictions on high-rise buildings, so the floors in the city are generally not high, so that you can easily see the whole city when you climb the Eiffel Tower.

"Shall we go to the top floor or to the second floor?"

After arriving at the Eiffel Tower, the two need to take the elevator to get up, and the elevator requires a fare.

It costs 8.5 euros to go to the second floor, and 14.5 euros to go to the top floor, and of course, if you don't choose to take the elevator, you can also take the stairs, but it is difficult to take the stairs, and you also need to pay for the stairs, so basically no one will choose this.

"Let's go to the top floor! A Chinese poet once said that we will be at the top of the mountain, and we will have a view of the mountains! We will naturally go to the top of the highest level, so that we can have a view of the mountains!"

Denise didn't study Du Fu's poems, but since Lin Quan wanted to go to the top, she naturally followed.

"Please buy tickets first, and then wait in line for the elevator!"

The staff is managing the order, in fact, the discipline of the Europeans is not bad, and the queuing is almost consciously carried out, and there is no need to be reminded or anything, but because she saw Lin Quan with an East Asian face, she reminded her more.

"Damn!

Lin Quan was very unhappy in his heart, Europeans, especially the white people in Europe, have a sense of superiority over Asians, they used to have a large number of colonies in Asia, and the countries in Asia have surrendered, and at this time they are economically leading developed countries, so they have a sense of superiority psychologically, even when dealing with Japan, which is also a developed country, they also have this sense of superiority.

"Don't worry, the French are more nationalistic nowadays, and they have a lot of recent immigrants, didn't Donald say it before? Now there are a large number of immigrants going to Europe, and France is one of their main destinations. ”

Denise was afraid that Lin Quan would feel uncomfortable, so she patiently explained to him.

Sure enough, after listening to Denise's explanation, Lin Quan's heart was much better, and when he thought that the French were about to really become Francistan, he couldn't help but secretly be happy in his heart, villainous face!

The speed of the elevator is very fast, but the cityscape of Paris... Well, how to put it, it's relatively old!

Lin Quan thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know what word to use, and finally used the word obsolete.

Paris is an international big city, famous in the world, but this city is really very old, it is not dirty and messy, but it is relatively close, in short, it is not so beautiful, some people used to compare Shanghai to the Paris of the East, that is the affirmation of Shanghai, if there are still people who compare Shanghai to the Paris of the East, it is an insult to Shanghai.

Although Lin Quan has never been to Shanghai, he is very sure of this statement in his heart!

The view from the top of the Eiffel Tower is actually quite good, and if you don't look at it too carefully, it's a nice experience to look out into the distance from here.

But the height is unbearable, and if you stand high, the wind will be stronger, so the two of them didn't stay on the top floor for long, and they couldn't stand up.

If it's summer, it's nice to blow the wind on it, but unfortunately, it's winter.

Looking at the other tourists wearing thick down jackets on the top of the tower, Lin Quan and Denise both felt a little trembling.

They came from Africa, and these tourists came mainly from Northern Europe.

When Lin Quan and the others set off, the temperature in Africa was close to 25 degrees Celsius, and although it was winter, it was not very cold.

The temperature in Northern Europe has dropped to minus 178 degrees at this time, and in countries like Norway and Finland, the temperature in some areas has even dropped to minus 30 degrees, which is not a place for people to stay at all, so there are so many tourists who come south to spend the winter, and they come from cold places, and the most important thing around them is to keep warm from the cold.

Lin Quan, who had come from warm Africa, had expected that it might be colder in the north before they came, but they didn't expect that the winter in France would be so cold, and the few clothes they brought on them could not stop the fierce wind on the top of the tower.

So the two had to end their sightseeing trip on the top of the tower early, and then came to a café on the banks of the Seine, the café was air-conditioned, the two ordered two lattes, held the coffee in the palm of their hands, warmed their palms, and the indoor heating quickly wrapped their bodies, which allowed them to return to normal body temperature!
