If you like traveling, you probably have the Eiffel Tower on your list. It’s well-known for its beauty as well as its history. It represents Paris which is why a lot of people travel for hours just to see it.
There are so many things you can do when visiting the Eiffel Tower.
You can check out the pretty views over Paris or enjoy the food options there. You can check out its architecture up close or simply take pictures as souvenirs.
A group of men, however, had a different plan.
They didn’t just take pictures or enjoy the magnificent view. They decided to dance!
They performed the Horon which is considered as a traditional dance of the Black Sea region of Turkey.
The 6 men looked determined to deliver an impressive performance. At one point, they even had to ask someone to step aside so that they’ll have enough space to move around.
They stood side by side while holding hands. Then, another man started playing an instrument and the guys began lifting their arms and swaying their hips to the melody. They were lifting their legs, stomping their feet, and raising their arms with enthusiasm.
The men’s performance was lively.
In fact, almost everyone near them stopped taking photos of the view and looked at them with awe. Some even took photos and videos of them. There were people who couldn’t stop themselves from dancing along.
The dance impressed a lot of people, even those who’ve seen it online.
One viewer commented:
“I’m not Turkish but i don’t know why i feel so proud of them.”
Another one said:
“Awesome dancing luv it wow, aren’t they tired it was long enough but its, so incredible, steps by steps wow luv it you are all amazing.”
The dancers’ video has over 4 million views and the number is still rising.
That doesn’t come as a surprise. Apart from the guys’ impressive dance moves, the video also highlights the Eiffel Tower.
The tower was designed and built by Gustave Eiffel. It was supposed to be a temporary exhibition but it turned out to be an icon so it stayed that way.
The tower stands about 986 feet. It was considered as the world’s tallest structure for more than 4 decades. The spot was stolen by New York City’s Chrysler Building in 1930 and the Empire State Building in 1931. Today, that spot belongs to the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. It stands 828 meters.
The Eiffel Tower is so loved by people.
Known as the La Dame de Fer, millions of people visit it each year, making it one of the most visited paid-for monuments in the world.
Considering how special and amazing the structure is, it’s not a surprise why these men chose to perform their traditional dance there. It’s not just a way to show their appreciation of the tower but it’s also a fun and entertaining way to showcase their culture and their respect for it.
