Famous landmarks around the world, including the Eiffel Tower, Colosseum, and Parthenon, participated in Earth Hour by switching off their lights for an hour as part of an environmental awareness campaign organized by the World Wide Fund for Nature, encouraging global participation to raise awareness of environmental issues.
Two American tourists were found sleeping inside the Eiffel Tower after a night of heavy drinking. Security guards discovered the inebriated men trapped in a restricted area between the tower's second and third levels. The Eiffel Tower's operator intends to file a complaint against the men, who posed no threat and were handed over to the police. This incident is the latest example of tourists misbehaving at famous landmarks worldwide, including a recent video of a tourist climbing across Rome's Trevi Fountain and an English tourist carving a note into the Colosseum in Rome.
