Louvre on the Sea

🌟Highlights: The Louvre on the Sea is really built on the sea, and the whole building is like a shell floating on the sea. The exhibits here are rented from the French Louvre by the UAE, with a lease term of 40 years. In terms of the exhibits themselves, each one has a heavy 'weight', and indeed many wonderful works are seen here. There are paintings by Monet, Dali, and Da Vinci, as well as sculptures and unearthed cultural relics. 👍Most recommended: If possible, it is recommended to have a guide. It is said that you can download a dedicated App on your iPhone to listen to the explanation of the works. We were very lucky to book a Chinese guide when we went there. A beautiful Asian lady explained to us all the way, but only some of the exhibits, with an explanation time of about half an hour, which helps to understand the works. In addition to the works, the architecture of the Louvre on the Sea itself is also worth a look. The outdoor part has the light and shadow effect formed by the architecture and the sunlight and sea water, which is very, very beautiful. You can also check in with the same photo as Liu Yifei. There are also 'chicken soup for the soul' words written in Arabic and French on the glass doors here. It has to be said that the power of words sometimes surpasses that of material.
