Paris (city), city in north central France, capital and largest city of the country, on the River Seine, some 370 km (230 mi) from its Atlantic Ocean outlet at Le Havre. Paris is situated in a low-lying basin; relief within the city is generally slight, although the elevation gradually increases from the river to the low hills that ring the city's edge. The highest natural feature within the city proper is the Butte de Montmartre, at 129 m (423 ft) above sea level.
Paris has a temperate climate with mild winters (January mean temperature 2.8° C/37° F), cool summers (July mean temperature 18.9° C/66° F), and evenly distributed annual precipitation.

Eiffel Tower, wrought-iron tower in Paris, a landmark and an early example of wrought-iron construction on a gigantic scale. It was designed and built by the French civil engineer Alexandre Gustave Eiffel for the Paris World's Fair of 1889. The tower, without its modern broadcasting antennae, is 300 m (984 ft) high. The lower section consists of four immense arched legs set on masonry piers. As they extend upwards, the legs curve inwards until they unite in a single tapered tower. Platforms, each with an observation deck, are at three levels; on the first is also a restaurant. The tower, constructed of about 6,300 tonnes (7,000 tons) of iron, has stairs and lifts. A meteorological station, a radio communications station, and a television transmission antenna, as well as a suite of rooms that were used by Eiffel, are located near the top of the tower.

Amsterdam (Netherlands), seaport, constitutional capital, and principal city, western Netherlands, in North Holland Province, on the IJ (an arm of the IJsselmeer), near The Hague. The real seat of national government, however, is in The Hague. Amsterdam is divided by canals into approximately 90 islands, joined by around 400 bridges. Almost the entire city rests on a foundation of piles driven through peat and sand to a firm substratum of clay.
