" Louvre Museum "

whoever said the Louvre is only about I.M Pei's glass pyramid is wrong.
there is a vast space of architectural beauty inside out,
as it was used to be the foundations of a medieval castle that
housed french kings for centuries.

this photo was taken at the rear side of the museum,
the Richelieu wing,
and it lights up gorgeously at night.

" The Louvre "

My first day in Paris,
I was eager to see the Louvre,
despite being tired from the flight,
and almost getting lost inside the airport on the way to the hotel.
(long story) ^0^

Of course, thanks to fellow blogger Peter,
who has a blog called Peter's Paris.
He quickly showed us the highlights of the city,
gave us a bit of a heads up about local Parisians,
familiarizing us with each arrondissement,
believe me, digesting all this in just a few hours can be a bit confusing. ^0^




That night, we headed straight to I.M Pei's glass pyramid,
and whoever said that it's a monstrosity,
clearly hasn't been to Louvre at all.
It looks spectacular at night as it is during day time,
clearly a sight that is impressive.
