A must-see in Paris: From a train station to an art palace, the Musee d'Orsay

When you come to Paris, you are always surrounded by art and museums, and you are baptized by beauty every moment. After seeing so many, my favorites are still #Musée d'Orsay and #Pompidou, especially Musée d'Orsay, which always brings a unique atmosphere.

The Musee d'Orsay, located on the left bank of the Seine, was formerly a train station in the late 19th century. As you step into the museum, the high-ceilinged hall, tall dome, large clock, and steel structure give the entire space both a historical depth and a modern feel. The collection here mainly consists of works by Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masters. It is a treasure trove that cannot be missed for those who love these art styles.

When you come to Orsay, the works of Van Gogh and Monet are definitely must-see highlights. But I personally prefer #Renoir's soft and vibrant brushstrokes, which are really beautiful. After visiting the exhibition area, remember to go to the top floor, where you can overlook Paris through the glass windows and see Montmartre standing on the hill in the distance.

In short, the Musee d'Orsay has unique architectural charm and world-class collections, and every part of it is worth savoring. Whether you are an art lover or it is your first time to experience Impressionism, this will be a profound experience and it is definitely a check-in spot not to be missed in Paris!
