Paris Las Vegas and its Eiffel Tower replica

Paris Las Vegas, which opened in 1999 on the Las Vegas Strip, features a half-scale replica of the Eiffel Tower as part of its Parisian theme. The tower includes an observation deck that offers views of the Strip and has become an identifiable element of the Strip's themed-resort culture. The resort's architecture and signage contribute to Las Vegas's history of large-scale themed entertainment venues.
