If you’re planning a trip to Paris, My Modern Met states you can see the Mona Lisa in person at The Louvre. One of the most famous museums in the world, The Louvre is one of the tourist attractions that has made Paris a must-visit destination. Also known as the city of love and lights, Paris is perfect for soul-searching Enneagram Type 4s and has a lot to offer beside museums. It was also recently heavily featured in the Netflix show “Emily in Paris,” which uses Paris both as a setting and as inspiration for its title.
The Louvre was first built back in 1190, as Live Science reported, and was steadily expanded over the years to become the beautiful building it is today. Originally a royal palace, the building was used as a court base until 1682. During this time, King Louis XIV moved the court to Versailles, another famous French landmark. After moving to Versailles, The Louvre became home to various art schools and was used as a place for the students to show their work. In 1793 it opened as a museum.
According to The Louvre website, the museum now consists of three wings that showcase various artworks, including da Vinci’s enigmatic painting. The Louvre Estate additionally includes two beautiful outdoor spaces, the Carrousel Garden and the Tuileries Garden, which offer visitors a chance to take in some fresh air whilst enjoying the picturesque scenery.
