Touring: Champs de Mars
Click
here for Paris Hotels
As
the name suggests, the Field of Mars (Rome's god of war) has a military
heritage.
Originally
the parade ground of the cadets at L'Ecole
Militaire, the Champ de Mars has seen some of the best military
men in history march upon it.
One
of those was a young Corsican named Napoleone
Buonaparte.
Today
it is used by Parisians as a place to relax.
