The October 4, 2016 music video Gosh by Jamie xx was shot in a recreation of recognizable Paris buildings and sights, including a very large model of the Eiffel Tower. Scenes in the video show that at that time several components were still under construction.

Where exactly is this, and what does it look like today? Are there people living in all these buildings, walking the streets, perhaps riding an elevator to the top of the tower?

According to this Billboard article it's Tianducheng near Hangzhou. This travelogue article, last updated in 2021, isn't very positive, making it sound like there is still a lot of construction and it's still largely unpopulated, but maybe someone who has been in person can report differently.
