Getting there:

LINE 1 Métro station Louvre-Rivoli

LINE 7 Métro station Palais Royal-Musée du Louvre

Tip: The Pyramid Entrance is always crowded so I highly recommend entering the museum via the Carrousel du Louvre Entrance. The Louvre is Earth's largest museum, so expect to spend at least 2-3 hours inside.
