I couldn't believe how empty this was after fighting through the top rooms of the Louvre the day before. The grandeur of the architecture is worth the admission alone, although the gold dome from the outside is perhaps still my favourite part, especially at night. Napoleon's grave and the church were other highlights.

129 Rue de Grenelle, just a short walk down the seine from the Musee d'Orsay, best approached from the esplanade but varenne and La Tour Maubourg are closer metro stops
