TOWER OF LIGHT IN THE CITY OF LIGHT.
PIC INFO: Resolution at 1920x2560 -- Spotlight on the Eiffel Tower during its nightly light show in Paris, France. 馃摳: Pierre Loti. March 27, 2017.
OVERVIEW: "As soon as it gets dark, the Eiffel Tower鈥檚 golden lighting switches on聽automatically within less than 10 minutes, thanks to light-sensitive twilight sensors. Simply check an almanac to find out what time the monument will light up. This system, which dates back to 1985, has no less than 336 1kW high-pressure sodium lamps that are changed every 4 years (the last replacement took place in the spring of 2019).
These lights are both for aesthetic and safety purposes since they light the route for visitors and ensure the proper operation of the monument at night.
PART II: In addition to the structural lighting,聽a beacon located at the top of the Tower聽also comes on at dusk. On a clear evening, its rays can reach up to 80 km! It is reminiscent of the beacon that was installed on the monument in 1889. But in fact, the current beacon (which dates back to 1999) consists of 4 marine-type projectors, one on each side of the monument, that are operated by micro-computers with specific software and a programmable logic controller. These 4 projectors take turns performing a 90掳 rotation and turning on and off in sync, creating the illusion of a 360掳 rotating beam."

Yumilab: Paris, your pavement under the rain Paris, you are so beautiful under the rain. When your old monuments are reflected in your cobblestones loaded with history. City of light, city of love, it's so hard to leave you and so good to return to you. 3 coasters with a drawing of Parisian pavement. It will be a beautiful souvenir of your visit or a gift of the city of light or a table decoration for an event. https://www.yumilab.com/en/home/403-3-coasters-paris-cobblestones-in-concrete-paris-sidewalks.html #yumilab3d . . . #paris #parislovers #streetofparis #weddingsparis #parisevents #eventslannerparis #iloveyouparis #henparisparty #parissidewalks #coastersparis #parisweddings #parissouvenir #parisgift #parisian #parisdecor #parisianlifestyle #howtobeparisian #parisstreetstyle #paris_enthusiats #parisianstyle #pariscityoflove #parislover #pariscityoflight #pariscoasters #pariscobblestones #parisfashion #parisstyle #alwaysparis #parisweddings (en Yumilab The deco artshop) https://www.instagram.com/p/B29yRlMBwoJ/?igshid=16wm3h6sbuqer
