The <i><b>Louvre Museum<\/b><\/i> is open every day but on Tuesdays (Mondays are usually very busy). It opens at 9 am and closes at 6 pm.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesdays and Fridays the museums stays open until 9:45 pm. And every first Sunday, from October to March, access to the museum is free for all visitors! For other useful information, you can visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketlouvre.fr\/louvre\/b2c\/index.cfm\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Louvre Museum website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>My favorite time to visit the Louvre is definitely on Wednesday and Friday evenings for their special <em>nocturne<\/em> hours. It is a lot less stressful without all of the crowds, and there&#8217;s something so&#8230;&#8221;Night at the Museum&#8221; about visiting after dark!<\/p>\n<p>Plus, you won&#8217;t have to worry about pushing through crowds, or rushing past a painting that you really want to spend some time admiring. It&#8217;s also a great time to snap some photos without any other visitors getting in your way!<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, try to get to the museum as soon as it opens at 9am. You&#8217;ll also find that there are less crowds this early, but that being said you&#8217;re going to want to show up around 8:30am, especially in the summertime.<\/p>\n<p>Another tip for visiting the Louvre would be to try to visit during the week. Sure, there will be other tourists there with you waiting to admire all of the amazing art, but all of the Âé¶¹APPians will likely be working during the week!<\/p>\n<div id=\"disco-2300773211\"><div class=\"\" style=\"text-align:center\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/recommends\/new-campaign-louvre\" target=\"blank\" class=\"buttongreen2022\" rel=\"noopener\">Book your Louvre Tickets Now<\/a> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Pick the right entrance<\/b><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_40583\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/512px-entrance_@_le_carrousel_du_louvre_@_paris_33693593134.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40583\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/512px-entrance_@_le_carrousel_du_louvre_@_paris_33693593134.jpg\" alt=\"Carrousel du Louvre \" width=\"512\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/512px-entrance_@_le_carrousel_du_louvre_@_paris_33693593134.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/512px-entrance_@_le_carrousel_du_louvre_@_paris_33693593134-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-40583\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image by Guilhem Vellut &#8211; WikiCommons<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Carrousel du Louvre entrance on rue de Rivoli.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s so easy and pleasant to lose time in the Louvre, but it would be really too bad to lose time outside of it! <b>The best way to visit the Louvre Museum<\/b> is, first of all, not to enter in the Louvre by the pyramid entrance!<\/p>\n<p>If you want to take wonderful pictures of the Pyramid, feel free to exit the museum by this entrance, but do not come in by it.

The Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo da Vinci during the Italian Renaissance, is widely regarded as the most written about and discussed portrait of all time. The Mona Lisa is also well-known due to its exhibition at the Louvre and its extensive reproduction in popular art and culture.<\/p>\n<p>There are various reasons why the Mona Lisa is so famous, including the aesthetic success it represents as well as several notable events in the painting&#8217;s history.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Part of the Mona Lisa&#8217;s fame can be attributed to the painting&#8217;s distinction from other Renaissance portraits of women. While most women of the time were painted in a serene profile, the woman posing in the Mona Lisa is rendered at a three-quarter angle, making her presence much more visible to the viewer.<\/p>\n<p>What also distinguishes her is that she appears before the audience in very modest garb, as opposed to the highly ornate garments and appearances commonly seen in paintings of the social elite throughout the Renaissance. Another reason is the portrayal of emotion in the woman&#8217;s face was particularly unusual during the period.<\/p>\n<p>Upper-class sitters were often depicted with stoic, controlled expressions to suggest their preference for tranquility and humility over eruptions of overwhelming emotion. This enhanced the Mona Lisa&#8217;s smile, leaving the visitor to speculate about her identity and experience. As a result, the Mona Lisa became a focus for reflection on human nature and emotion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/the-best-way-to-see-mona-lisa-at-the-louvre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How to Make Sure You Enjoy Your Mona Lisa Visit at the Louvre<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>2.

The Louvre is the world&#8217;s largest, busiest, and most visited museum. It houses 35,000 items of art dating from the sixth century BC to the nineteenth century AD.<\/p>\n<p>It is an opulent Renaissance mansion in and of itself. The Louvre, as you might expect from that description, can be an intimidating madhouse.

My final advice is for you to relax around the museum after the long visit of the Louvre. Once you get outside the museum, cross the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel to reach the <i><b>Jardin des Tuileries<\/b><\/i> and simply relax and have long conversations about all the great art you just saw and about the meaning of life! This is the best way to end the visit of the Louvre Museum in Âé¶¹APP!<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Also, the gardens that separate the Louvre from the Place de la Concorde are a lovely spot for walking and culture for both Âé¶¹APPians and tourists; Maillol statues coexist with those of Rodin and Giacometti. The two ponds in the gardens are ideal locations to unwind.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re still itching to see more art, there are also two other museums located within the Jardin des Tuileries: <em><strong>l&#8217;Orangerie<\/strong><\/em> and the <em><strong>Jeu de Paume<\/strong><\/em>. You&#8217;ll find an impressive collection of Monet&#8217;s Water Lillies paintings at the l&#8217;Orangerie, and the Jeu de Paume is a photography museum! There is seriously no shortage of art and museums in this city, which is one major reason why I love it.<\/p>\n<p>Another great thing to do after or even before your visit of the museum is to join our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/hidden-gems-and-secret-paris-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hidden Gems tour<\/a>.
