Gentlemen,
It is likely that I will be in Paris from 24th to 27th of December.

What Napoleonic tourism places do you recommend to visit ?
Or I am just going to waste my time as everything will be shut down due to Xmas?

If there is only one thing to do it would be:

Les Invalides: you have the Museum and then you can go see the Tomb of Napoleon.
For 9 euro you can have access to the museum and the church.

I agree with David. When you visit the tomb, his presence in palpable. :shock: :shock: :shock:

I also enjoyed seeing the Arc de Triomphe. :wink: :wink: :wink:

And be sure to have a long afternoon reserved for the museum because you will have a lot of things to see. If you have time you could go to Versaille and see the galerie des batailles.
