The Louvre is the most visited art and culture museum in the world. It has one of the oldest and largest collections anywhere. It's really more of a spectacle than a museum. You get the feeling that many of the visitors are there primarily to soak up its overpowering scale and just be a part of the scene. That's fine, I went on a get-in-for-free day and did exactly that. The unfortunate consequence is that the art plays second fiddle to the building and massive crowds. You have to visit, though, because you just have to.
