Museo del Louvre - Biglietti d'ingresso

Very complex building. It is confusing to find your way around and skip parts you are not interested in. Definitely plan to visit multiple days if you want to see all. The Mina Lisa is always really crowded and in my opinion a little overrated. There are way more impressing paintings.

I've always loved art, even as a child, and the Louvre has been the #1 museum on my list to visit for so many years. Now, I can remove it from my bucket list because I made it to the Louvre and it was everything I imagined! It's large, crowded, filled with incredible art, you'll need months just to go through each gallery to fully appreciate the amazing works of art and objects here. I spent four hours here and I barely scraped the surface of what the Louvre has on offer. The audio guide is worth the 5 Euros and essential in providing context to the most famous works of art you'll see. Naturally, the showstopper is the Mona Lisa, which I made a beeline for the moment I entered the museum. I've read about the Mona Lisa since I was a kid and I wanted to see what the hype was all about. It's smaller than you think, demure and humble, just ignore the hundreds of gawkers (me included) gawping at it behind the barrier. Even if you're not an art lover, I think most people would enjoy spending a few hours at the Louvre, soaking up art, beauty and culture. You won't regret it.

This is an amazing museum. There is so much to see. The ancient art and carvings, the paintings and sculptures, and of course, the Mona Lisa are fascinating.
