Paris (Day Five) (Part One)
Les Invalides in Paris where ill and elderly soldiers were housed. It is also home to the tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte. I thought the spire was very pretty.
The Arc de Triomphe was built after one of Napoleon Bonaparte's war victories. We were able to see it from all sides as we circled around it in our tour bus.
The obelisk given to France by the Egyptians in the Place de la Concorde. It even has Egyptian hieroglyphics engraved upon it!
The fountain next to the obelisk at the Place de la Concorde.
The Academie Nationale De Musique, home of the Paris Opera.
The Moulin Rouge, or the Red Windmill.
