Australian Corps Memorial

Reviewed By TiburonTony - Tiburon, United States

A little isolated but only a few kilometers from the Sir John Monash Center and definitely worth a visit. Overlooks the village of Le Hamel in what is now an extremely peaceful setting, in WWI it was the end point of the battle. Excellent commentary plaques that describe the tactics of (Gen.) Sir John Monash and the flow of the battle. This was a battle in which coordinated tactics were used extensively for the first time (aircraft, tanks, artillery) and with detailed plans; the battle was over in 93 minutes. Front line trenches still can be seen. We went right after visiting the Monash Center which was quite busy and for the hour we were at the memorial no one else appeared. Sad really as it is a place worth visiting.

Le Cachot

Reviewed By emgarb - North Carolina, United States

In this interesting and eclectic shop tucked away in a fascinating historical French town, the owner was fixing up the basement of his store over a period of several years. He made some fascinating discoveries and he tells you the story during the tour. He speaks simply and slowly and if you have a basic knowledge of French you can follow him - if not there are almost always bilingual tourists with you who translate as he speaks. If you want an unusual and long to be remembered experience, stop by Le Cachot!

Musee et Domaine Nationaux de Compiegne

The royal chateau in which Marie Antoinette first met the Dauphin.

Reviewed By robertnicolau

Probably not as well known or as ornate as Versailles but well worth the visit as it is tucked away in Compiegne which has plenty of free or affordable parking. Some of the rooms in the palace are stunning especially the bedrooms. There is also a museum which has plenty to see especially the sleighs. There is also a small cafe on site which is quite expensive so you may be better eating in the tow. There is plenty of cycling and walking available in the grounds which is free to use.
