Review:
The Louvre is more than the largest museum in the world; it is an awe-inspiring experience. Masters of every discipline of art line the walls of this palatial building and even spill onto the grounds surrounding the museum.
Visitors are encouraged to take a guided tour or a workshop to better discover the canon of western art from the Middle Ages to 1848. From the iconic pyramid in the center of the entrance courtyard to the Mona Lisa, there are more works of art housed in this palace than there is room to display them. Lovers of architecture will be thrilled to wander the hallways and admire the museum itself, which is a work of art and was inhabited by both royalty and the French heads of state until 1870.
