🌙 Why the Louvre at night is the best!
✅ It's empty on Wednesday and Friday nights!
The Louvre is crowded during the day, but you can enjoy it at a relatively relaxed pace at night.
In particular, in front of the Mona Lisa, it can be difficult to get there during the day because of the crowds, but at night you can see it up close!
✅ The illuminated Louvre is beautiful✨
If you leave after closing time, you will be greeted by a spectacular view of the glass pyramid shining golden.
It also doubles as a nighttime sightseeing tour, so you can use your travel time efficiently!

🖼 Masterpieces you can't miss
🔹 Mona Lisa (Leonardo da Vinci)
🔹 Venus de Milo (Ancient Greek sculpture)
🔹 Winged Victory of Samothrace (Statue of Victory)
🔹 The Coronation of Napoleon (Jacques-Louis David)
🔹 Liberty Leading the People (Delacroix)
It's so large, so we recommend deciding in advance what you want to see and then going around!

💡 Useful information & things to note
❌ Audio guide (3DS) is a bit tricky...
The Louvre audio guide is on Nintendo 3DS, and it's hard to understand how to operate it...
If you want to listen to the explanation, it might be easier to download the smartphone app!
☕ Tips for rest spots
Even if the cafe in the museum is closed,
➡ After entering, take the elevator down to the lobby → Go forward and take the escalator up one floor
There is a rest area, so you can take a break there.
The information center is cold and they only tell you that the cafe is closed, so if you want to take a break, please do!

🏛 Go to the Louvre at night!
The Louvre is huge, and walking around all day will leave you exhausted...💦
If you take advantage of the night time, you can avoid the crowds and enjoy the beautiful night view, killing two birds with one stone!
Please try experiencing the Louvre at night✨
