The Louvre Museum in Paris

The Louvre Museum in Paris is one of the most famous landmarks in the city, alongside the Eiffel Tower. With its iconic glass pyramid, masterpieces like the Mona Lisa and the Winged Victory of Samothrace, it's a place that truly has no flaws.

To enter the Louvre Museum, purchasing a ticket with a reserved time slot in advance is essential. If you're considering an open run, you should arrive around 8 AM, as it's one of the most challenging places to do so. Tickets can be booked on the official website or platforms like Trip.com, so once your plans are confirmed, make sure to secure your Louvre tickets early. If you delay, you might not be able to visit during your preferred time.

Exploring the entire Louvre Museum in one day is nearly impossible. That's why I opted for an online guide to focus on the key artworks. Even with this approach, it took me four hours, which gives you an idea of just how vast the museum is.

My favorite painting in the Louvre is 'The Coronation of Napoleon.' The atmosphere and the sheer grandeur of the artwork are so overwhelming that I often forget to take a photo in front of it.

The museum is so large that its exhibits are divided into three main sections. While maps are available at the information desk, they aren't very helpful for navigating. I strongly recommend using the Nintendo audio guide, as it displays your current location on the screen, eliminating the worry of getting lost.

This was my third visit to the Louvre Museum, yet every time feels fresh, fascinating, and captivating. If you're visiting France, make sure to include the Louvre in your itinerary and allow plenty of time to fully enjoy the experience.
