The Louvre

After the Trocadéro, I walked the 2.5 miles to the Louvre. Unfortunately, it had closed for the day, and I was out of luck for tomorrow, since it's closed every Tuesday. I'll have to wait until my next trip to Paris to see inside the Louvre. It was quite late, and quite overcast by this point, so the photos tend to be a little dark. I'm not an expert on the Louvre, so make sure to follow the link in the French Landmarks I've Visited section for proper information.

The easternmost part of the Jardin des Tuileries.


Looking through the Jardin Des Tuileries, one can see l'Arc de Triomphe far off in the background.
