The Louvre Museum wasn’t in our list the first time we visit Paris. Not until I read and watched the Da Vinci Code that I realized I missed my chance of a lifetime to see the world’s largest museum. I thought I would never get any chance so I indulged in watching the film over and over, lol! I’ve been held captive by a notion that travelling for pleasure is not meant to travel the same places all the time. Even if I want to visit the same place again, it’s unlikely to happen. Maybe because there are so many countries, so many places to visit eventually.
But anyone who have been to Paris would definitely say it’s one of the must-visit again places. And that’s what we did nine months ago. Our second trip to Paris gave us the chance to visit the Louvre Museum. The pyramid was not that astounding by day because of the absence of lights. It’s part of the entrance to the museum and believe me, anyone can afford to get inside for 9€ – 14€.

The Louvre Museum Pyramid among the crowds.
With quilt jackets on, bonnets on the head and winter gloves covering the hands, these people were having a good time in the museum area. And we were one of them, though, you can’t find me in the pic above because I was behind the camera. It’s somewhere around here where Tom Hanks did the last scene of The Da Vinci Code, but I was wondering how large the crowd that day they managed to shoo away, hehee…

The ground around The Louvre Museum
I aware how the film can be very effective to promote country tourism. 😀
.-= LetUpdate´s last blog ..Pick the Blog Theme =-.
Yes, indeed. The Louvre Museum has increased it’s tourist visits after the release of the book and film.
The building excellent architecture.
I would say so…
Hi Marlene,
Not seen you for quite sometimes in my blog. By the way, I like your new blog layout. Simple yet user friendly.
Oh this one is a museum. Was it shown in the Da Vinci Code? It surely looks beautiful to me. I always dream of travelling to Paris one day. Do they speak English?
Hi Willie, it’s because of my job. I can’t have enough time to bloghop yet.
Yes, it’s shown in the movie – part of the interior and that pyramid. Keeping dreaming, you’ll be there someday. Sure, they can speak english.
Wow, the Louvre Pyramid! I would love to visit that place 😀
.-= Nick Phillips´s last blog ..When Will It All End? =-.
Thumbs up, I highly recommend you do it.
@ willie– French is there local language. But they can spake English. Paris is really very beautiful place to seen. Its mostly known for its latest fashion.
I couldn’t agree more. Paris is known for fashion and popular trademarks.
Nakapunta ka na ng Paris?
Sosyalan ka pala!
Si Marlene pa, travel ang pahinga nyan, hehe.
.-= Amor´s last blog ..Dress Up Day =-.
@Ridiculous: Hehee! Sosyal baga? Di naman. Nagkataon lang na nasa Europe pareho ang Sweden at France.
@Amor: Hahaa, di naman palagi. Kapag may budget lang. 🙂
Lovely place..I would plan my next trip soon…Thanks for sharing.
.-= Ruchi´s last blog ..Benefits of Apple =-.
And be sure to share it with us. I’d love to read your travel stories.

.-= EarningStep´s last blog ..My monthly report – EarningStep dot com august report =-.
A weekend in Paris is not quite enough, but to be in Louvre for two days perhaps.
Btw, I have a problem opening posts on your blog. I couldn’t get into the single page. The message says that the browser has got a wrong command or something.
and Dan Brown said that the pyramid was made of 666 glasses and he is wrong. It’s supposed to be 673 or something pieces of glasses
But I’d love to go to Paris one day 😀
.-= Michael Aulia´s last blog ..Happy Birthday, Google Chrome =-.
I should have counted it myself, hahaa.
It was just a myth that he integrated in his book. I don’t think he didn’t know the truth, though.
Sure, I highly recommend it.
Thanks for apprising me about such beautiful place and you have taken best views in your camera.
Thanks. Just honing my photography interest.

Hi Marlene, I read the comment no 11 and your reply there. I thinks that you have to review your comment policy. I thinks that quantity is much better than quality in blogging. Because google always monitor that how much traffic on your site or blog. I am giving a reference Pls check its comment policy http://www.infectedbybugs.com/. I am very much inspired with it. I apologies if i say some thing wrong.
Thank you for referring the site. I still go for a quality content with quality comments, too. Quantity will some come when my blog becomes popular.
I will look into this later.

.-= Joy´s last blog ..Australian Father’s Day =-.
Thanks for the alert about commenting on my blog Len. Kundi pa..diko malalaman may problema.
.-= Joy´s last blog ..Australian Father’s Day =-.
You’re welcome, Joy. Ilang comments na rin kasi ang di pumasok. Visit ko uli doon at let’s see kung maayos na.
Why people are making pyramid? what do we get inside the structure? But I guest its really a good art and nice eye sight.
.-= dlysen´s last blog ..Friends love at all times =-.
You got it right, it’s for art’s sake and for a place’s trademark.
Thank you for your visit. Hope to see you again. 🙂
