The is way more to the Louvre than the "Mona Lisa". You could spend all day in just one section (like the ancient Egyptian section) and not see it all. It is truely amazing all that we have created throughout history. The building itself is a marvel... It is an amalgam of royal one-uppery (yeah its a word, I just wrote it didn't I?), the Louvre started out as a palace. Actually, it was two palaces, and throughout the years, and numerous additions the two have been linked, and now we have the glorious Musee de Louvre. 03.28.2011
