Tour The Louvre Right From Your Desktop

If you're reading this from a cybercafe in Paris and you want to tour the world famous Louvre, Qu'est-ce que vous attendez? Log off and get to it-it's definitely something you don't want to miss on your visit to the "city of light." The rest of you read on!

Did you know that even if you're nowhere near Paris, you can still tour the Louvre? You'll be happy to learn that their official museum Web site is offering virtual tours of the Louvre that are nothing short of spectacular.

Enjoy 360 degree views of many exhibition rooms and galleries from the museum including:


  • Near Eastern Antiquities


  • Egyptian Antiquities

  • Greek, Etruscan and Roman Antiquities

You can even take virtual tours of exterior sections of the museum like the Cour Napoléon or the Cour Carrée. Viewing these wonders right on your computer screen is the next best thing to being there in person!
