Visit the Louvre Museum
How well do you really know the most famous museum in the world? In the heart of the former home of the King's of France, stands the famous glass pyramids of Pei (extremely controversial in 1988). A few feet away, the artist Anselm Kiefer is installed in the northern staircase of la Cour carrée, for contemporary art also has a place inside the museum. A full program of temporary exhibitions, film projections and concerts makes the Louvre a fascinating place to be. Thus, the Louvre is « a secular institution resolutely focused on the future ».

The Louvre is definitely a place to visit for anyone who is staying in Paris, and this great video shows it very well! What is also great is that the Museum is located near the Seine, Notre-Dame, ile de La Cité and ile Saint-Louis: after being inside all day, it’s nice to go out for a walk in these beautiful places! The central area of Paris is so authentic and beautiful, it would be a shame not to visit it.
