Hello, they want you to "Use a switch statement to switch on the string passed in to return the right set of coordinate values for the location." , for example : Using your function like this: 

getTowerCoordinates("Eiffel Tower")
// Should return 48.8582, 2.2945

if you pass in

getTowerCoordinates("Great Pyramid")
// Should return 29.9792, 31.1344

So at least create a switch statement for all 3 locations *** a little hint for the first case ***

case "Eiffel Tower": return (48.8582, 2.2945)
