Why should you visit the Louvre?

Once a Royal Palace, the Louvre was later converted into a public museum at the end of the French Revolution. Today, the Louvre houses one of the most expansive art collections in the world, with pieces from all periods. Notably, the museum has pieces from the Egyptian civilization, the Mesopotamian civilization, the Greek and Roman civilizations, along with pieces of Islamic art. Visiting the Louvre allows you to see all these art pieces, including Da Vinci’s most famous work – the Mona Lisa. If you enjoy history and classical art, make sure you visit the Louvre at least once while in Paris.
