Amazing museum 🇫🇷

#paristrip

This summer, I finally visited the Louvre Museum in Paris, and it was a dream come true! 🎨🏛️ Located at Rue de Rivoli, the entrance fee is 17 euros if you book online, and it's worth every cent.

The sheer size of the Louvre is mind-blowing; it’s impossible to see everything in one day. I started my visit with the iconic glass pyramid entrance, which was an experience in itself. Once inside, I made a beeline for the Mona Lisa. Despite the crowds, seeing Da Vinci's masterpiece up close was incredible.

I also loved the vast collection of Egyptian artifacts, particularly the Rosetta Stone. The museum’s layout can be a bit overwhelming, so I recommend picking a few key sections to focus on. I spent hours wandering through the Greek and Roman antiquities, admiring the Venus de Milo and the Winged Victory of Samothrace.

After the museum, I strolled through the beautiful Tuileries Garden just next door. For lunch, I grabbed a baguette sandwich from a nearby café and enjoyed it by the fountains. The museum is also conveniently close to the Seine, so a walk along the river was a perfect way to end the day.

Visiting the Louvre was the highlight of my trip to Paris. The art, history, and atmosphere make it a must-see for anyone visiting the city. #louvremuseum #parisart #summerinparis #monalisa #travelfrance
