The Eiffel Tower in Paris is set to open on June 25

Masks are essential, walkways will be cleaned every two hours, officials said.

The Eiffel Tower in Paris, one of the most visited places in France, will reopen to tourists next week. Officials plan to initially allow a limited number of people to enter the tower.

Visitors will only be allowed to go to the first and second floors, and in the first phase, the elevators will be closed. People's walkways will be cleaned every two hours, and for 11 years. It will be necessary to wear a mask for all those above. It is expected to be fully opened on June 25. About 7 million people visit the Eiffel Tower each year, but the French tourism industry has suffered greatly since the announcement of the lockdown in March.
