I’ve been to a lot of cities and travelled quite a lot. But Paris has always been one of my favourite destinations in the entire world. The City of Light has long been celebrated as a beacon of art, culture, and history.

The Louvre is the most visited museum in the world and the most well-liked museum in France. It is home to the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo, and hundreds of other famous works of art, sculptures, and more. It gets overwhelming to see so much in one museum.  From the Classical Antiquities wing with Egyptian artefacts and Greek and Roman sculptures to the grand galleries of the Denon Wing, it covers everything.

A museum that is renowned for its rich collection of Impressionist art masterpieces. It features all Western artistic creations from 1848 to 1914. People can marvel at iconic works by renowned artists such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, and Auguste Rodin. From Monet's ethereal water lilies to Van Gogh's vibrant sunflowers, each painting exudes a sense of immediacy and emotion that transcends time and space.
