Eiffel Tower or the 'Iron Lady' is a fierce symbol of love. Anything that remotely happens with it affects us, no matter which part of the world we are sitting in.

So, when the Tower was hit by lightning after severe storms lashed out in Paris, we were bewildered.

Paris has been put on storm alert since Monday alongside the northern and the western regions of France. But the spectacular sights showing the Tower being struck by lightning has now become the talk to the town.

Of course, the stunning views were captured in videos and photos which have widely been shared on Twitter.

🇬🇧 Lightning struck again yesterday evening! Thanks again Bertrand Kulik @ptrenard for these breathtaking pictures. #EiffelTower #Thunder #Paris - https://t.co/2R3LBAwByU pic.twitter.com/8m4Aeq2gFe

Breathtaking scenes! Parisians sure got a treat for sore eyes - if that was even possible with Eiffel Tower being so pretty all the time.
