So here is the explanation the Eiffel Tower is six inches taller in summer than winter. The height of the Eiffel Tower is 324 meters on average-changes depending on the season. When the hot summer sun beats down on it, thermal expansion causes the metal to grow. The tower can swell in height by as much as 15 centimeters (6 inches).

You wouldn't think, that because of the heat of the iron, the tower can increase by 6 inches just because of that

You're absolutely correct! The Eiffel Tower's height variation due to temperature changes is a fascinating phenomenon. It demonstrates the concept of thermal expansion, which occurs when materials, like iron in this case, expand when they are heated and contract when they cool down.
