Even though museums tend to not make the top of the list for holidays and vacations, one should not pass up a visit to the ever famous Louvre right smack in the capital of France. A place unlike any other, it boasts a vast collection of art pieces dating back many centuries. As some have been known to adorn pedestals and thrones of various layers of society, most make the Louvre their final resting place. Art buffs who can afford the expense of premium accommodations prefer five star Paris hotels near museums as they can easily pop to and fro between their favorite places. Imagine having the Louvre as one's neighbor. That is certainly a tale to share with those back home, complete with pictures taken from the room's window and balcony to prove one's point.

As this world-famous establishment houses the world-famous Mona Lisa, many are bound to knock elbows in a bid to get a closer peek at the famed lady with a smile. By picking one's time of visit well, an art lover may be opportune to enjoy this piece of handiwork without others shoving from all sides. Nothing leaves a bitter aftertaste than a poke in the ribs or a much taller individual or coiffure cutting off one's line of sight. Since the size of the portrait is so much smaller as compared to da Vinci's other works such as the Last Supper, one may need telescopic lenses to get a good look at the lady and especially the knowing smile. One can even put to test the legend that her eyes also follow one around if time and space permits.

If the crowd is unrelenting in crowding around this famed exhibit, it may do one well to adjourn to other equally attractive alternatives. Venus de Milo, fashioned after the Greek goddess of love, is certainly an apt choice as one is in the city of love and should therefore enjoy all things related to the sensation. Although the sculpture seems to be somewhat lacking in the upper limb region, it may perhaps sprinkle some possibility of love dust in the hopeless romantic's way. With an afternoon of subjecting one's sensory preference on such delightful works of art with their public stories and hidden secrets to share, it is a logical conclusion to choose five star Paris hotels near museums. Exiting the museum refreshed and coming face to face with the harsh honking of horns is certainly not part of the plan.
