The entire Paris was shell shocked with respect to the terrorist attacks.However, Eiffel Tower reopened today after three days. Earlier it was closed because of the terror attacks on Paris. The entire Eiffel tower turned dark all these days. Now as things slowly turn back normal, they have lightened up the tower once again. 


The iconic tower however will be seen lit up in the French national colours blue, red and white from sundown. Lots of people are showing their support by turning the colours to blue, red and white. 


An operator in Eiffel Tower said, "Usually 15000 to 20000 people visit this tower. But now only hundreds are visiting. Now it is reopened and it is glowing in patriotic colours." The light also carries the slogan "Fluctuat nec mergitur" which means "It is buffeted by the waves, yet remains afloat." 


The attacks prompted the company to halt the tower's nightly illumination and hourly five-minute flashing light show. Apart from Eiffel tower, The Sydney Opera House and One World Trade Center in New York were also lighten up in blue, white and red to show their support.
