Louvre Museum



In the former royal palace of French Kings, the Louvre is an incomparable museum that ranks among the top European collections of fine arts. Many of Western Civilization's most famous works are found here including the Mona Lisa by Leonardo DaVinci, the Wedding Feast at Cana by Veronese, and the 1st-century-BC Venus de Milo sculpture. The collection owes its wealth to the contributions of various kings who lived in the Louvre. Other pieces were added as a result of France's treaties with theVatican and the Republic of Venice, and from the spoils of Napoléon I. The Louvre has an astounding collection of 30,000 artworks, including countless masterpieces. It's impossible to see it all in a day or even in a week. Focus on a shortlist of key artworks for the most rewarding experience.

  1. Wow! That’s what you call a perfect holidaying! Even I am planning to visit Nice with my spouse on our second wedding Anniversary. Few other renowned France Tourist attractions are on our bucket-list as well. Now, all that is left to do is to apply France Schengen Visa for both of us.
