Meet at the Pyramid or the statue of Louis XIV for a brief introduction, then head inside to see the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and the Winged Victory of Samothrace. Along the way, discover the museum's medieval fortress origins, the Hall of Caryatids, the Galerie d'Apollon and its Jewels, and the Grand Galerie, home to works by da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Caravaggio.

About Paris
Paris pairs grand boulevards and riverside monuments with café terraces, art collections of global stature and neighbourhoods that feel like villages.
The Seine runs through the heart of the city, past the Île de la Cité with Notre-Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle, the long façade of the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay in its former railway station. Downriver, the Eiffel Tower rises over the Champ de Mars, and the Arc de Triomphe crowns the Champs-Élysées.
