Europe is one of the seven continents. The other six are North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Australasia and Antarctica. Some of the countries in Europe are the United Kingdom, France, Holland and Greece. Throughout Europe, you can find a variety of famous landmarks that bring millions of tourists to the continent every year.

Terrific Tower
The Eiffel Tower is found in Paris, France, and was completed on 31st March 1889. It took just over two years to build. Until 1930, it was the tallest building in the world, being 324m tall. This is the same as an 81-storey building! Seven million tourists visited in 2013, making it the most-visited paid monument in the world. There is even a miniature copy of the tower in Las Vegas, USA.Terrific Tower

Mysterious Stones
The mysterious Stonehenge can be found in the English countryside in Wiltshire. People believe that the stones were erected around 5,000 years ago, but nobody is certain as to why. It is also a mystery of how the stones got there, with many believing that the stones were brought to Wiltshire from over 200 miles away. The mystery of the stones brings around a million visitors every year, with its busiest day on 21st June for the Summer Solstice.

Colourful Cathedral
St. Basil’s Cathedral is found in Moscow, Russia and is shaped like flames, though many of the towers look like colourful ice cream cones. St. Basil’s is the only cathedral of its kind; no others before or after have looked like that, which is why so many people flock to the famous landmark every year. It was built from 1555-61. This cathedral’s cool design and colours are often mistaken for the Kremlin, the home of the Russian president.
