The Louvre Museum

Awesome. What can I say that others haven't? So much classic stuff. I especially loved the Egyptian stuff -- the Book of the Dead in glass cases mounted on the wall -- the weighing of the heart ceremony -- was really surreal to see the original. Of course there is a constant crowd around the Mona Lisa. Oh, and you can take photos of a lot of the historical stuff!!! Always a plus. Went there twice and spent probably a total of 4 hours at least over 4 days -- and only scratched the surface.

Don't stand in line at the pryamid, adjacent to the mini arc  d'triomphe is staircase that leads you to the underground shops and a metro station. There is usually a very short line. Pick one or two galleries to see in any given day. Grab lunch at the outside cafe and enjoy the people watching.

You will need more time at the Louvre than you think. It will take you hours even if all you do is walk through the museum. Have an idea of what you'd like to see before you go because you can't really appreciate how big it is until you're inside! Here's my tip: If you're under 18 entry to the permanent collection is free, while those under 26 can enter free after 6pm on Fridays. We opted for the latter entry, and while we had less than 4 hours we saw a lot of amazing things! The lines also weren't long at all and the popular exhibits (like the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo) weren't crowded. It was a good time to go!

Europe’s Oldest, Biggest, Greatest and second most crowded museum. Grab a floor plan at Information so that you don’t miss any of your favourite works like the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo and Winged Victory and still have time to discover other parts of the city.

I love the glass pyramid of the Musee du Louvre. It's just so beautiful at night. The Louvre has lots of collections, not only European paintings but also sculptures, Oriental and Egyptian antiquities, Greek, Etruscan and Roman antiquities and others.Most people know The Louvre Museum as the home of famous art collection. It is true. We can find the Mona Lisa painting, which was painted by the famous artist, Leonardo da Vinci. There are also notable Flemish paintings, including Jan van Eyck's Madonna of the Chancellor Rolin. Also, the famous Self portrait and Bathsheba by Rembrandt.

Fabulous architechture - be sure you look at the outside as well as the inside of la louvre. I have 3 top tips - To tip 1 - allow more time than you think you need and take refreshments. Top tip 2 - Manually set your camera flash to OFF before going inside, to avoid being shouted at by staff. Top tip 3 - There is much more to see than the Mona Lisa (which is disappointing). If you just ask staff where the ML is, then they get annoyed because you will be surrounded by lots more fabulous treasures then a dull painting behind what appears to be 3 feet of bullet proof glass!

the Louvre is one of the largest palaces in the world, as well as one the world's great art museums. Important paintings include the Pietà of Avignon, Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, two marble Slaves by Michelangelo, ect.

wow so many amazing things u can see there, but its sooo huge that its impossible to see everything what the museum hides! I remember when ifinally got the 3rd or 2nd floor (the one with paints gallery) i was about to stop feeling my legs, and all cheirs were already taken hahaha and some ppl were sleeping on them hahahaha but... it was the best musem i have ever seen... i dont really like musems, but this one is really special!

I really enjoy visiting the Louvre, although I don't think there's any way that you should attempt to see everything in one visit- it's much too overwhelming!  The audio tours also make a big difference to the experience, especially if you're not really up to date on art.  I have found audio tours in Paris to be a bit hit and miss, but this one is really well done.

It is absolutely unbelievable to be in the world's largest and most famous museum. The artwork was fascinating (The French paintings were by far my favorite with their soft colors and captivating emotional lure) and the exhibits very cultural and interesting. Everything was very well organized, but it's too bad I couldn't read the language. Ha ha.

The Louvre and the Triangle look great when lit up. The buildings are all lovely in Paris. The Eiffel tower is also lovely to see. I had to pick one but both are great for different reasons. Notre Dame is also an amazing building. All three are a must to see if you visit Paris. You can easily catch a cab. Its also pretty cheap to go in. ..

If you enter through the shopping mezzanine and buy the museum pass through an automated bank-type machine, you'll skip the lines and wait at the crystal pyramid on the plaza. The line was at least an hour long at the pyramid and going the other way, we walked right in! And you must see the Louvre if you are in Paris!

This was spectacular. I saw the Mona Lisa, The eyes really do follow you but otherwise I found it mediocre. The statue gallery was my favorite part. The Eros and Psyche statue became my favorite piece of art because of this trip.

A huge museum filled with older paintings and statues, people looking for colorful art should go to the other art museums in Paris. The statues are more of the monumental kind. One should be fit to walk literally miles to see everything in this museum.

What can I say, the Louvre is amazing! Have a game plan. There is so much to see, so if there is something that is a must, see it first. The building itself is a piece of art. Slow down, take your time, take it all in.

Amazing! My absolute favorite museum in Paris! Only thing that can be said against this place is it's size! Saying that it's big is a bit of an understatement! It's worth the trip to Paris- it's worth the trip to France!

It's very impressive to see the glass piramides of the Louvre. I didn't go inside because there were too many people in line waiting. But next time i go, i'll stay longer to see every single art work there's to find.

Huge museum. Filled with lots to see and lots of people. Make sure you see the Mona Lisa, as it is one of the most famous paintings there. Worth looking around, even if you aren't big into museums.

One of the most extensive art collections is housed in this historic building. A worthwhile visit for history bluffs and art lovers. It will take a good half day or more to visit all the exhibits.

I don't know really why I like the Louvre Museum. I've a lot of good memories about this place, with my sisters, friends, etc. Each time, I'm impressed by the antique and medieval sections.

Get cultural! Absolutely stunning building, housing some of the greatest works of ark like the venus de milo and mona lisa. Next to the eiffel tower it's a must see for anyone visiting paris.

totally awesome museum, even though the famous portrait "Mona Lisa" disappointed by just being a freaking painting.Otherwise great, if your in to culture and stuff..//Aagaard

Pour moi, sans aucun doute un des plus beaux musées du monde ! Si vous ne l'avez jamais visité, n'hésitez plus une seule seconde et allez contempler le sourire discret de Mona Lisa ! :)

One of the most interesting museums in the world, skip the Gioconda and see Canova's sculpture "Amour et Psyche", Delacroix "Freedom giuding the people", and the Egyptian Section

It's an awesome, mesmerising place to be in. My favourite is the Egyptian section, but I also love the paintings, especially the old Masters - and of course the 'Mona Lisa'

Need i say anything about "Louvre" and the "Collection"???.. the only thing can be said is.. "Louvre" should be considered one of the wonder's of the world.

Fascinating visit for anyone interested in art, or history. Give yourself lots of time, and limit your visits to the areas you are most interested in, as the Museum is huge.

I've been to the Louvre nearly a dozen times, but the view up the staircase to Winged Victory still takes my breath away every single time.

What can I say...if you love museums, artifacts, art or whatever, you will love it. Just be sure you have plenty of time to enjoy it.

What can I say? Definitely my most memorable experience from my visit to Paris and the most incredible collection of art I have ever seen.

The famous museum is the most interesting place I went to in Paris. If you like paintings, sculpture, history, ... it's the place to be.

The museum to see when you stay in Paris, with the famous "Joconde" , "Venus de Milo", and the egyptology section, wonderful!

Enorme e basta.Mi sono perso e per almeno mezz'ora non trovavo il posto che cercavo. Troppa troppa robba..bella ma troppa

Absolutely amazing. Could spend a whole week just here. Definately worth a visit, if only to see the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo

Loved this place. Wish i had alot longer to explore than i did. You could literally spend days walking through these halls.

The sights were absolutely magnificent...highly recommend walking along the Seine at Sunset...one of the most romanitc places!

My favorite painting is the "Coronation of Napoleon" by David. The Starbucks in the basement has the best cheesecake.

I'm not original in this case. Wonderful place, both inside and outsde. I gave it 4 out of 5 because of the queues ;p

Le Louvre est un monument incontournable de Paris et il faut l'avoir vu au moins une fois dans sa vie.

This place is huge. Tons of art to observe. I went there before the pyramid was built out front though.

I got so lost in here but didn't care. I just ried to see as much as I could, and loved it.

one of the best museums of the world.... you need more than one day for see everithig, is incredible

Too large and a bit over-rated. Has some interesting works, but too large to view in one day.

one of the biggest and more interesting museums in the world comfy shoes are a must.

The Louve, one of the most famous museums. Wall to wall art and artifacts, never ending.

so much information in one place, is only possible in the louvre!!! it is unbelievable.

Don't visit the museum! Just enjoy the courtyard. It's the most beautiful palace ever.

non basta una giornata per vederne la metà...emozionante soprattutto la parte egizia

This place is IMMENSE! Go only if you have at least a week to explore it!

Duh 5 stars lol The smell of ancient paintings is startlingly refreshing.

What more is there to say????? Great Art and the coffee isn't too bad either.

The Louvre Museum is a must see. I go and visit it every time I'm in Paris.

Seeing the most famous cheeky smile in the world is a must - the mona lisa

It's really indescribable. If you like art, this is the place to go!

So many beautiful things...you'll need more than one day to see it all!

Si vous allez à Paris, c'est certainement une chose à ne pas manquer.

Huge square with huge museum...So many things to be seen there.

The Louvre is awesome...leave a whole day or two for it though.

Absolutely amazing sight!!! especially at night, just breathtaking!

Its some 10 museums in 1 museum...never ending and awe-inspiring

obviously the most amazing place u can go for an art lover
