Hotel des Invalides (Paris, France) - August 27, 2010

A few days after arriving in France I visited the Hotel des Invalides, which is (to take a description from wikipedia) "a complex of buildings containing museums and monuments, all relating to the military history of France." The grounds were absolutely beautiful and the displays were incredibly interesting. The exhibits on the World Wars were particularly fascinating, as was being able to visit Napoleon's tomb in the beautiful dome chapel.
