Napoleans Tomb is quite and intersting place to go to. The main area where he is buried is quite a structure. Its grandeur and size tell you a lot about how much he would have been respected during his times.
The rest of the Hotel de Invalides is not very exciting. It houses an army museum which was party shut due to some renovation. So after covering most of the area, we settled down on the lawns to finish a bag of chips, fruits, beer & wine which we had to consume since we were leaving Paris the same night.
After lazing around a bit more, we made our way to the Notre Dame Cathedral. The queues were long but we managed to slip in, in true desi style, the only time we've broken a queue.The cathedral has a lovely facade but the interiors were dark and the place was crowded since it was a weekend. Its a nice place with lovely stained glass windows on all sides.
We got out quickly, caught a bite and headed back to the hotel to pick up our luggage and head to the airport.
