There is nowhere in the world like Paris when it comes to museums. In this glorious European city you'll find as much to explore within four walls, as you will in the city itself. It's merely a question of personal tastes and having the time to explore. Of course, the top on every tourist's list is the Louvre, known the world over and home to countless masterpieces including the Mona Lisa. Then there are museums that cover a certain time period like the Musée d' Orsay showcasing art from 1848 to 1914 and the Centre Georges Pompidou covering Modern Art. Some museums concentrate on specific artists, like the Musée Rodin, Musée National Picasso and the Espace Montmartre Dali. Other focus on art from around the world like the Musée de l'Institute du Monde Arabe, devoted to Arabic-Islamic art and the Musée National des Arts Asiatiques - Guimet, which is the foremost museum on Buddhist art in Europe. Want to learn about medals and coins, hunting weapons and animals, erotic art or perfume? There is a museum for it here in Paris. In fact, there are enough museums for several weeks of rain or snow, should you be so unlucky as to encounter such weather. Some museums are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and all are closed on bank holidays. Free or reduced admission may be available for children or students. The most economical way to visit museums in Paris, if you plan to see several, is to purchase a 1-, 3- or 5-day Paris Museum Pass from one of the Metro stations, the tourist offices or at participating museums and monuments. This will allow you to visit as many museums as you like on the days of your pass and to forgo lines to buy tickets.
