Top 10 Sights in Paris Countdown #7

For all of you history buffs out there, sight #7 might well belong higher up on the list.

#7 The Invalids.

Napoleon Bonaparte… Such a little man making so much noise to finally end up locked up into seven coffins under a golden dome. If you’d like to say hi to Napoleon’s coffin, the Invalids is the place to go! It actually used to be a hospital for war veterans under Louis XIV, hence its name. Other than being Napoleon’s resting place. it offers an amazing display of weaponry, dating back to the Middle Ages armor or WWII, in its great military museum.
