Visiting Louvre Museum in Paris, France

The Louvre Museum in France, housed in the former seat of French royalty (Palais du Louvre), is a massive maze of collections from diverse artistic and cultural worlds. A French flag proudly waves atop the castle. At its main entrance lies a glass pyramid created by I.M. Pei in 1989, which also serves as the entrance to the reception hall beneath it. It is the globe's most visited museum, with more than 20,000 visitors in a day.

There are around 35,000 artwork pieces and eight thematic departments. There are permanent collections such as the masterpieces of Rubens, Da Vinci, and Delacroix and Egyptian, Islamic and Greek art collections, as well as temporary exhibits that put the spotlight on specific artists or movements. There are guided tours available for both individuals and groups to make the visit to the Louvre a less daunting task for its guests.

Visitors overwhelmed by the numerous artworks can take a breather at any of the Louvre's restaurants or cafes. There is also a bookshop underneath the pyramid which sells books and gifts. For the shopaholics, the Caroussel de Louvre is a shopping haven within the Louvre Palace that has all the offerings of an upscale mall. The Museum is located in the 1st arrondissement on the right bank of the Seine. There are several entrances, with the Pyramid entrance being the most famous, and, as such, has the longest queues for visitors. Visitors may also want to try other entrances with shorter queues such as those in the Porte des Lions, and Galerie du Carousel.
