    Wonderful and great. I was here in 1983 last time, so it was great to be back. Lots of people of course but it that was ok. Loved all the things and took lots of pics. Toilets in every floor. A really good thing. A bit hard to understand the map. Maybe make an interactive in the phone so you can see where your going. My friend who was with me had problems with her knees so we were in need of lift which were hard to find. I do recommend a visit here if you’re in Paris. Just know that 1 day isn’t enough.

    Great place but extremely crowded. I had spent time viewing the great structures around the museum and did not go into the museum as it had extremely long queues to buy a ticket & enter. Also, was scared as no COvid regulations were being followed. Even outside place was nice.. garden area is nice but very dusty also some illegal and indecent adult content activities were being done by some visitors in the garden thinking no one will see them or they do not care any.

    Description About Louvre Pyramid The Louvre Pyramid (Pyramide du Louvre) is a large glass and metal pyramid, surrounded by three smaller pyramids, in the main courtyard (Cour Napoléon) of the Louvre Palace (Palais du Louvre) in Paris. When François Mitterrand was elected President of France in 1981, he laid out an ambitious plan for a variety of construction projects. One of these was the renovation of the Louvre Museum. Mitterrand appointed a civil servant named Émile Biasini to oversee it. After visiting museums in Europe and the United States, including the US National Gallery, he asked Pei to join the team. The architect made three secretive trips to Paris, to determine the feasibility of the project; only one museum employee knew why he was there.[109] Pei finally agreed that a reconstruction project was not only possible, but necessary for the future of the museum. He thus became the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre. Structure The large pyramid serves as the main entrance to the Louvre Museum. Completed in 1989, it has become a landmark of the city of Paris. The structure, which was constructed entirely with glass segments, reaches a height of 20.6 metres (about 70 feet); its square base has sides of 35 metres (115 ft). It consists of 603 rhombus-shaped and 70 triangular glass segments. The pyramid and the underground lobby beneath it were created because of a series of problems with the Louvre's original main entrance, which could no longer handle the enormous number of visitors on an everyday basis. Visitors entering through the pyramid descend into the spacious lobby then re-ascend into the main Louvre buildings. To minimize the impact of the structure, Pei demanded a method of glass production that resulted in clear panes. The pyramid was constructed at the same time as the subterranean levels below, which caused difficulties during the building stages. As they worked, construction teams came upon an abandoned set of rooms containing 25,000 historical items; these were incorporated into the rest of the structure to add a new exhibition zone. The new Louvre courtyard was opened to the public on 14 October 1988, and the Pyramid entrance was opened the following March. By this time, public opinion had softened on the new installation; a poll found a fifty-six percent approval rating for the pyramid, with twenty-three percent still opposed.

    The best and romantic place to be by night, the weather is so nice and the architecture is breathtaking. The Pyramide is a skylight in the Carrousel du Louvre shopping mall, It looks like an upside-down, once in the basement ( in the louvre) you'll see how beautiful it is.

    In the city off lights is a must go see place. Sometimes you don’t have the time to go inside the museum, but you absolutely have to go and see a place that has become national and international reference. Anytime off the day it’s a lovely view but at night just magical

    the Louvre is the most visited art museum in the world. Located in the heart of Paris, this historic building is a former royal palace, with an area of 210,000 square meters including 60,600 for the exhibitions. The museum is housed in the Louvre, originally a fortress built in the late 12th century under Philip II. The remains of the fortress are visible in the basement of the museum. The collection is divided into eight departments: Egyptian antiquities Oriental antiquities Greek, Etruscan and Roman Islamic Art Sculptures of the Middle Ages, Renaissance and Modern Times Objects of art Paintings Graphic arts.

    Spectacular pyramid - signature of the famous Louvre museum. Very crowded so a bit hard to take photos within people. Consider come at night when the light up as less people and you can enjoy the pyramid for its beauty differently. They turn off the light at 11pm though so ensure you come before that.

    Lines can get long so buy your tickets in advance. The Louvre is huge and is probably good to spend a day inside if the weather is miserable but we ended up just checking out the pyramid and walking around it. It's free and lots of space so you won't have to jostle around for the perfect spot.

  • 5/5 Pranay D. 4 months ago on Google • 176 reviews
    We got here for sunrise at around 7:30am in November and there was almost no one and at around 8:30 it started to fill in for entry line and within 30 min, there was no place to walk. So highly recommend making the effort to come early for great shots. If you have some time in Paris, You don’t have to combine the pyramid with visiting the museum as that can get tiring but if you can get an early morning slot then totally do it.

    Excellent place with full of historical and art information. Like a Collosseum, with a glass pyramid in center, this is a MUST visit places in Paris. Dive deep into the history and arts with a guided tour, through official websites, hop-on & hop-off buses tour including virtual tour. Exciting events held across the year and MASTER pieces from canonical works of Western art, just next to Seine river. Good to have advance online ticket booking. Enjoy !!!

  • 5/5 Glasco Martin I. 3 months ago on Google • 143 reviews New
    So glad to finally get to another place that I had only seen in movies! So glad that we had a reservation ticket because the walk up line was insane at 10:30am! The museum is beautiful throughout and very large, so be prepared to walk. My only negatives for me were that the navigation sometimes was difficult and there weren’t enough restrooms / toilets or they weren’t very visible. I would like to have had the option of spending a whole day here but did not. The lines coming in were worse as we headed out. Definitely worth visiting though.

    A must see when in Paris. Its a lovely example of modern and historical architecture blending together seamlessly. The pyramid is stunning, and only adds to the greatness of what used to be a royal palace. The mini pyramids around it are also very cute! Also check out the inverted pyramid, which is very cool!! The pyramid is a great way to enter the Louvre, however when it gets very busy there are other quieter entrances if you don’t want to wait too long. Beware of pickpockets around here... don’t take anyone’s survey!!!

    Commissioned by François Mitterrand in 1983, it was built between 1985 and 1989. It was designed by the architect Ieoh Ming Pei. The metal structure weighs 200 tons; it has a height of 21.64 m. The construction of a pyramid on the Cour Napoléon was initially proposed for the celebrations of the centenary of the French Revolution. The structure serves as the entrance to the museum.

    What can add to what has already been said by many others. It is a must see place, one of the best museums. With the Paris museum Pass one can access it for free but reservations with a time slot are still required. It is very organized despite the fact we visited it on a Sunday. There were time slot specific lines and it moves very fast. There are bag checks and it is better to be lightly loaded maybe just a water bottle. There are cafes with good, delicious food and coffee options including a Starbucks. The first place we visited was the world's favorite painting and we almost ran to beat the crowd. It was still crowded but we got close to seeing it, not as close as the selfie taking folks who would not move and were camping in front. I feel bad for the staff, not many folks listen to them and it's a pain to get them moving. It takes a week (5 days) to take time and explore the museum and that would be the best way to enjoy the collections. There are toilets in the facility and even if crowded they are managed well minus the mess made by the visitors.

    Definitely a must see if you are visiting. It can be a bit confusing getting in. Not as English friendly as Germany but the fact that most people know multiple languages compared to us lazy Americans, I shouldn't complain. The main glass pyramid you see is not the main way in. If You purchase tickets online, if your walking in from the big drive way, go to the left side of the building or ask the person managing the line at the Pyramid. They will direct you.

  • 5/5 정해철 3 months ago on Google • 240 reviews New
    Must go place, however, because of the size of Louvre museum, you must make a exact plan such as route and time to spend in Louvre. In addition, strongly recommend to buy a museum pass ticket. You can save your time.

  • 5/5 Katie D. 6 months ago on Google • 103 reviews
    It's a lot of walking and some areas do not have air conditioning so it can get pretty sweaty. I have been twice, and right at open is a lot less crowded. The restaurant has decent food and it's not outrageously priced.

    The Louvre Museum exceeded all expectations, earning a solid 5 stars. The modern and clean atmosphere added to the overall enjoyment of the visit. Navigating the vast collection was made even more engaging by the option to rent the new Nintendo 3DS XL for the tour—an innovative and fun way to explore the exhibits. The device not only looked cool but also provided insightful information about each masterpiece. The museum's commitment to enhancing the visitor experience with such interactive elements deserves applause. From the impressive art collection to the thoughtful amenities, the Louvre truly offers a top-notch cultural experience. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Alessandro S. 2 months ago on Google • 211 reviews New
    One of the best places in Paris. You can relax, take pictures or simply be amazed by the architecture. There's a lot to be seen in this place, there are a couple of cafes here, gardens and other buildings. You'll always see a lot of people here, so be prepared. No matter the weather, you will always have a good time here. This is a good spot to take pictures.

    Louvre pyramid means your life is about to change once you go to the underground entrance to the Louvre. I'll never forget the dark, rainy skies above while below everything seemed magical. Itself, a wonderful artistic landmark. Guides who speak various languages will help guide you. Don't be the person that thinks this is a movie theater to buy tickets at the front when you get there, pick an early access time on a day you will be there a few days out, if not a week to not wait in line forever. The line to access at chosen times are bad enough.

  • 5/5 Leo I. 1 month ago on Google • 166 reviews New
    Beautiful museum with lots of things to do. Plan to spend minimum 2 hours here and some time to get close to the Gioconda since that room gets really crowded. I suggest to buy your tickets online and to not miss your time slot.

  • 5/5 Karl S. 4 months ago on Google • 165 reviews
    What a beautiful place with so much to see and experience! Plan for a full day it take it in over a down of days...4 hours and we only saw about 1/3 of what was really available!!! It is a bit crowded and there is little signage, so be prepared for a little confusion, yet so worth it.

  • 5/5 Alvin Dave S. 1 month ago on Google • 154 reviews New
    Magnificent! I am lucky to have been there during a not-so-busy time. I like the atmosphere of this place. It makes me think of the thought put into the creation of this place. It is also massive! There are places to sit and chill—an Instagrammable location. I will come back soon! I urge you to check this place out when you are in Paris!

    Iconic and huge...everything you would expect of such a famous museum. A day is probably not enough to marvel through the hallowed halls of this magnificent museum. Go, enjoy and absorb all the magnificent exhibits. Amazing experience even for someone who is relatively ignorant of the arts.

    I have been here a couple of times but never by the evening so I took a chance when I had one . By night this place is really amazing but expect a lot of people and don't be surprised since it is a very popular area . By daylight , the pyramids don't make such an impression like by night so make sure you have a chance to catch them when they really light up .

    This is a must to go place if you are found of history or if you just enjoy art or if you want a experience just Out of the world! And kudos to the staff they are very helpful. I lost my phone over there and they literally helped me find it and at the end I got it. I could not thank the manager she is so helpful and just an amazing woman. A very good and knowledgeable staff. Just amazing please do visit.

    When in Paris this is the museum you must visit. I was able to join a private tour on Sunday morning when the museum open. I definitely recommend having a guide ask. The museum is huge. It's the perfect way to spin a day in Paris and see timeless works of art. While I was there, I did see the famous Mona Lisa. I also enjoyed the Egyptian antiqueites. This museum is definitely one you can't finish in one day.

    There is so much to see and do. However there is too much to see and do. When I left I couldn't help but think about the things I've missed. The building is large and gorgeous, it is rather accessible and provides many spaces to sit. Though it is difficult to navigate even with a map.

This time Claudio from Babylon tours gave us so much historical insight to the building, the major art and statues. Absolutely, enhanced the already awesome experience at the Louvre!

    Man muss einmal da gewesen sein! Unbedingt die Karten im Voraus buchen, bis zum 25. Lebensjahr umsonst! Im oberen Teil kann es an sonnigen Tagen sehr stickig werden und dort gibt es wenig Sitzgelegenheiten. Außerdem sollt man sich einen Plan mitnehmen, um nicht die Orientierung zu verlieren.

    Very interesting and iconic part of the city and of the museum. Technically its functioning as an entrance so the usual big flow can be managed much better. It looks nice and is a great spot for taking some pictures. Looks particularly nice during sunrises and sunsets. These are the best moments for some great captures.

Calculate about 2 hours if it is a holiday season. (Original) Η Γυάλινη Πυραμίδα είναι η είσοδος του Μουσείου. Όμορφη σαν κατασκευή και τίποτα περισσότερο. Μαρτύριο η Αναμονή για να μπεις μέσα.. Υπολογίστε περίπου 2 ώρες εάν είναι περίοδος εορτών..

    (Translated by Google) The coolest entrance to the Louvre (Original) Самый крутой вход в лувр

  • 5/5 hrundelius 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The Louvre is a must-see, along with the Eiffel Tower, if only for the sake of a tick, because there are more than 30,000 expositions in the Louvre and you need to prepare for a visit if you do not plan to spend a couple of weeks on it) The presence of a queue at the entrance depends on the time of the visit, in the late afternoon there is often no queue at all, there is an audio guide in several languages, incl. Russian. (Original) Лувр - обязательный объект к посещению наряду с Эйфелевой башней, хотя бы ради галочки, т.к. в Лувре свыше 30000 экспозиций и к визиту нужно готовиться если не планируете потратить на него пару недель) Наличие очереди на входе зависит от времени посещения, ближе к вечеру очереди часто не бывает совсем, есть аудиогид на нескольких языках в т.ч. русском.

    If you love history great place to spend complete one day

    Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo... Bring your covid vaccination card and reserve your visit in advance. Wear tennis shoes as it is a marathon to see everything.

  • 5/5 Mark T. 2 years ago on Google
    It is huge, do your research and plan what you want to see. We were there from 10am to 6pm and I estimate we saw less than half. The collection is amazing.

    Big Place above and between the Louvre. You enter the Louvre When you're going into the glass Pyramid. There are 2 lines for Tickets At the Moment, one queue for Ticket holders and another for customers who need a ticket.

    It's indescribable the experience of seeing all those spectacular arts all in one place😍

    The Louvre Pyramid accomplishes the goal of moving people in and out of the museum in addition to providing lighting and dimension to a lower level of the Louvre. There were also shops and places to get a coffee or snack. It is a beautiful design!

  • 5/5 Michael S. 2 years ago on Google
    What can I say that hasn't already been said? Right now the lines are very short, so it's the perfect time to see the Louvre. This place has it all. If possible take a guided tour from a reputable agency, as they can add so much more to your journey through, and they can take you directly to the most popular and iconic pieces. Being so vast, it's important to plan an efficient trip through the Louvre so you can have enough time to see your favorite objects.

    Beautiful building full of beautiful history and art. Fantastic experience. I will definitely come back to see more!

  • 5/5 Bill O. 2 years ago on Google
    This place has multiple levels. It is a sort of like a maze. Lots of fun. Easily can walk around for 1/2 a day.

  • 5/5 Philthy M. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing piece of world history you must see to believe. We only stayed outside and were still in utter disbelief of the magnitude, hard work, & absolute beauty that went into building and designing this very special place. Next time we will go inside. Look through the windows to see inside the museum.

    The big glass pyramid was everything I expected from a big glass pyramid. The only thing that would have made it better is watching a heist go down like the movies. Where's Vin Diesel when you need him.

    One of the best museum experiences. Plan your spots before you visit this place and don't hesitate to ask the Louvre representatives of you feel lost.

  • 5/5 Alexis M. 2 years ago on Google
    By end of November is a good time of the year to go. Not many people and easy to navigate through the museum. Love the art 🖼 and is a big place. Be prepared to spend a few hours inside.

  • 5/5 Rishi D. 2 years ago on Google
    If there was one thing you did in Paris it’s the Louvre. The collection is immense with some of the most world renowned pieces simply placed in next door rooms. Wear comfortable shoes as there is plenty of walking to be done and there is a Paul bakery/ Starbucks internally for snacks. Consider entering via the apple store to avoid large queues from the front but these move quickly. Also consider the cafe that can be booked for dinner externally that is simply divine with the best pavlova and lasagne!

  • 5/5 Vonnie W. 2 years ago on Google
    Without a shadow of a doubt you must come visit this museum or at least see the pyramid. The museum is awesome. Prepare for a workout as it’s a lot of walking, but there is a locker for your coats and umbrellas free of charge so you don’t have to carry it. So many great pieces of art that is a once in a lifetime experience to view. If you can’t get a tour at least get the Audio tour that’s very interactive and explains the art. You can’t visit France or Paris without coming here. Absolutely beautiful experience.

  • 5/5 Maria A. 2 years ago on Google
    What I can say....The most beautiful place in the all over the word for me. I want to stay there days and days. I enjoyed every moment inside and outside. Three hours it was to short for me. I will back very soon to spend more time. The fillings are unbelievable, for someone who is fall with love in Paris, especially to Louvre 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

  • 5/5 Donna P. 1 year ago on Google
    What a beautiful place, nit only the pyramid but the whole building itself. I was ready for lots of walking, the size of this place is immense, I was ready for the multitude of staircase that had to climbed. That said there are lifts which I only found when leaving. Overall a memorable experience that I would recommend and will do again myself.

  • 5/5 Lucie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Really pretty!! Enjoyed the art a lot! I personally don't like tours though so I recommend just exploring on your own :)

  • 5/5 Iveta B. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing museum. Definitely buy tickets ahead on line to avoid long line up and make sure you are in a right line or you will waste time waiting and end up being sent to a different line.

  • 5/5 Jarred Hamilton (. 1 year ago on Google
    Iconic and beautiful... Yet I have no idea why they decided to do such a modern piece of art as the entrance/exit to such a grand museum. After waiting outside in line though... The more I looked at it... The more we both grew to live it and its orientation.

  • 5/5 Ales T. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is always a great idea to visit again and again. No matter what ch part of the day or year. Just anytime. And anytime I'm thinking about that big pyramid made by the glass in the middle of the square. Probably it won't me give up on it and I'll think again and again. Just a fantastic place. Thank you 🤩

  • 5/5 Mike P. 1 year ago on Google
    Another of the must-see destinations when in Paris. We had been advised that when you only have a day in Paris, to drop by and see the Louvre. The Pyramids over the entrance are understandably iconic and a very popular destination in their own right, and free to see and enjoy. The museum itself is vast and would take several hours even at less busy times of year.

  • 5/5 kocsmar k. 1 year ago on Google
    The best experience in Paris. Be prepared for a crowd and plan: if you want to enjoy your day, buy the ticket online, together with an audio guide. Select one or two topics. Impossible to see everything in one day. Study the map to find the toilette and coffee places. Enjoy!

  • 5/5 Sam “Neil Paul” W. 1 year ago on Google
    The Louvre pyramid is a great architectural piece which is becoming a staple part of the Parisian experience. The pyramid has apparently had mixed reviews on its existence, being a contrast to the rest of the Louvre with its modern architectural style. However, I really love this structure and I feel the contrast is incredibly appealing.

  • 5/5 Krisztina Anna B. 1 year ago on Google
    What a wonderful place to visit! Full of history and art! I would highly recommend it to anyone. Leave at least 4 hours, but better if you leave a full day for your visit. If you are not limited by time, then do 2-3 hours visits every day for a week, and perhaps you can see everything. It is huge, lots to see and absorb.

  • 5/5 Conor Hennessy S. 1 year ago on Google
    It’s a famously must see attraction in Paris, travelling for business I only had time to pass through the courtyard travelling between meetings but even then it was worth it. I think the building is even more interesting than the pyramid itself and I would love to return on my own time for a proper tour. Some beautiful scenery in the surrounding gardens too, a very beautiful part of the city.

  • 5/5 F M P. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful and must see. But be aware of pickpocket in this area. They come ask you to sign a document or petition. Don’t sign and run away because that’s their trick and another person is coming to steal your valuable while you’re signing the petition and don’t attention.

  • 5/5 Stéphane M. 5 months ago on Google
    To be visited....so much to see. You will not be able to see everything in one day. Better be organised and plan your day. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes because you'll be doing a lot of walking. Can also be quite busy but the Louvre is massive. Patience will be your best friend

  • 5/5 SariahKx 5 months ago on Google
    Loved it! Walked around for 4 and half hours and still had a lot we could have seen! Glad I managed to see Mona Lisa though despite having to wait in line for about 45 minutes. Love the Louvre! Second time I've visited :) highly recommend 👌🏼

  • 5/5 madi 5 months ago on Google
    the best place I visited during my whole Europe trip, worth every cent and every minute in there! you could never see it all! only downside was the difficulty navigating and the 3DS audio tour was cool at first but a bit janky, an app would be far more useful so you could see what direction you face!

  • 5/5 Bob S. 6 months ago on Google
    An iconic part of Paris that didn't disappoint...the museum itself was vast and just full of must-see art and exhibits (if VERY busy). Outside at the pyramids was equally impressive..if not more-so. There's always interesting characters singing, playing live music, skating...and sitting on the steps watching the sun set behind the pyramids, while listening to someone playing the violin is a night I'll never forget....

  • 5/5 S. W. 4 months ago on Google
    One of the most iconic places on Earth. Whether you're an art fan or not, you must visit the Louvre if you come to Paris. Paintings, statues and artifacts dating back thousands of years in some cases. Definitely cool and definitely a must see. Get your tickets in advance!!

  • 5/5 Arzu A. 4 months ago on Google
    Great architecture, I love revisiting the Louvre pyramids every now and then. Cant wait to witness this masterpiece in a sunset-moment. Sadly these landmarks are starting to get super touristic-busy. Early hours are the best here.

  • 5/5 Stephen S. 4 months ago on Google
    A must is to go here at night. Paris is a different place at night in a good way. Was fortunate enough to hear a musician playing as we walked around.

  • 5/5 Karl C. 4 months ago on Google
    What a great place to visit and has been checked off my bucket list.... make sure you get there 30mins before your time slot so you are one of the first in the queue but you are not in the queue for long ... well worth the visit and be prepared to be there for hours .

  • 4/5 Tiffany S. 4 months ago on Google
    Great. However you will get people in the background in the line if you go during the day. We went closer to 4pm, wasn’t much or a line. Just went to take photos outside. I think I would prefer to go during the night as I assume it would be much prettier. However you would need a nice camera to get the lighting right.

  • 4/5 Alicia A. 4 months ago on Google
    It's very amazing but it is HUGE. Our tour guide told us there are over 30 000 pieces of artwork and if you spent only 1 minute with each piece it would take you 9 months to see everything. We booked a front of line tour that got us in immediately and told us some interesting things about the museum and then he took us to the Mona Lisa and then we could just wander on our own. I highly recommend this. When we got there at 2pm. They had the line to get in stopped because of capacity restrictions. So happy we got that tour. Only 4 stars because the map is confusing and it's too big to even try to get to the areas you'd like to see but it is beautiful and so much art!

  • 5/5 Eduardo P. 4 months ago on Google
    This place humbles you in every way... it makes it so difficult to believe in the "official story" of the beginnings of civilization! Sadly, most part of the Egyptian sector was closed :( but there's so much to see and contemplate that you'd need days and days in it! Amazing!

  • 5/5 Puneet G. 3 months ago on Google New
    A cultural gem ! No one can ever describe the beauty, the sheer size and grandeur of the museum. AweStruck by the iconic artworks like the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and all the other masterpieces. The experience was both awe-inspiring and slightly daunting, navigating through the crowds and trying to take in centuries of art and history in just one visit. Overall, an unforgettable and mesmerizing experience. Definitely visiting again, many times over !!

  • 5/5 Bruno D. 1 month ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    There's nothing I can say that others haven't. It's a 'must visit' location if you go to Paris, and I definitely recommend dedicating at least 2 hours to visit a good chunk of the museum. Preferably you'd dedicate a whole morning or afternoon if you want to see "everything" it has to offer Also, a tip when you're inside: look up - nearly every room has a ceiling worth admiring
