The Eiffel Tower is of great cultural significance, but it is indeed ugly as all hell.

Guy de Maupassant famously ate in the tower's restaurant because it was "the only place in the city where I can't see it"

The tower itself is beautiful. The people around it trying to sell you tower miniatures make it less good looking.

From the perspective of construction, it is beautiful.

You got your history wrong; transmission towers are small versions of the Eiffel tower. Yes, it was seen already as ugly when it was erected ... but it was the first of its kind.

Fun fact, Adolf Hitler wanted the Eiffel tower to be destroyed, but his orders were ignored :-)

I wonder if you've ever seen it in person. I used to feel the same way until I actually sat under that big bitch at night with a glass of wine watching it sparkle.

Many famous landmarks are not beautiful. It may be ugly, but it's very recognisable.

It really depends on if you're on one of the sides or in the middle

I'm not sure that people find Eiffel Tower beautiful so much as what it represents

It's a pretty spectacular structure, more than I expected, but yeah, it's not worth all the pictures and decorations with the Eiffel Tower on it so many women 50+ years old love to cover their house with.

It just looks like a tower to me

As someone who has seen it in person, my view is that it is an absolutely amazing bit of architecture. An incredible structure.
