- Kate DavisJune 18, 2015The Louvre Pyramid is surrounded by water features - be sure to sit down and relax beside them for a calming view while you people watch or before you walk into the museum! Read more

AlteralecDecember 27, 2013Another architectural must-see. Visit the gigantic museum du Louvres if you have enough time. You'll see legendary chefs d'oeuvre such as Da Vinci's Joconde or la Vénus de Milo.Upvoted 1 week ago- Lina BellFebruary 5, 2017Good idea to pre-book tickets if possible and to recheck the times the museum is open...it is usually closed every Tuesday.
Jake SmithJuly 5, 2015The best way to take a picture is by one of the fountains or standing on top of one of the concrete blocks. A true tourist destination.
SailorJanuary 18, 2019Powerful stuff! A great museum I'd like to see more programming though and multimedia elements moving forward to make each space more dynamic
Pre-book tickets online and skip to priority queue entrance at the main pyramid entrance. Else, u need to queue to pass thru security scanning just like at the airport b4 u get to the ticket counter.
Lindsey KimDecember 9, 2014Free admission first Sunday of every month. There's a secret entrance by the Apple Store with much shorter lines.
Vít OlšákFebruary 1, 2016One of the most famous places on Earth, go there at night, there are no people here and you can almost see Robert Langdon behind you :)
Gary KoeJuly 7, 2013First Sunday of every month is free entry... be sure to be early else you need to queue for hours in the snaking line!!!
VildeSeptember 17, 2016If you go during the busiest time then I recommend buying tickets online beforehand. Shorter queue for those with tickets.
Brendan ElliottJanuary 15, 2018Such a beautiful entrance to the Louvre. Contrasts the aged buildings around it spectacularly.
Julia C.October 29, 2010Get the audio guide and do the "Masterpieces Tour." Highly, highly recommend this. It walks you directly to the most famous pieces in the museum and discusses the artwork, all in 45 minutes. It is
- when it's sunny don't miss prism spotting -- especially along IM Pei's wonderful spiral stairs
S AApril 26, 2015The pyramid has been, and continues to be, a sight to behold in Paris. Have a camera ready.
Marco OrtizAugust 22, 2015The queue to get into the museum is for people With no ticket or reservation. If you got your tickets in advance you can go straight to the main entry.
Paul FarrellJune 26, 2015A must see. IM Pei's design still wows. Great collection and give yourself time to take it in.
Lux LaCroixAugust 21, 2014It's the Louvre. You gotta do it. Get a Museum Pass so you don't have to deal with the obnoxious lines.
Love DragonFebruary 27, 2013Let me in!! I would like to visit the place for the purpose of taking the strong, monolithic nation artistic Aura off matters. Je suis un pirate gai!!
Michael Wells JrAugust 22, 2013Take a pic in the front, but please don't do the corny "touch the top" move in the photo.
James CoakesApril 13, 2013They seem to have tried to solve the pickpocket problem by putting up barriers. They should try doing this at the borders.
Mayuresh DubhashiAugust 8, 2011The Mona Lisa is surprisingly disappointing. Check out the huge Napoleon painting in the French section instead. Spellbinding.
If you are lucky enough, you can see ducks in the water next to the pyramids.
John GibbonsApril 4, 2012Enourmous line moves very fast on free days (first Sunday of the month). No delays due to people having to buy tickets, just security.
زاهر UsafSeptember 5, 2015Beware of pick pocketers. Avoid strangers who try to get cozy with no reason.
