The Louvre Museum is a remarkable construct like its French counterpart. The massive silvery dome is an eye-catching piece of architecture, showcasing a vast collection across 50 buildings.
About the structure
There is more to Abu Dhabi than desert adventures! Jean Nouvel Pritzker’s renowned construct is a beauty. Its design filters sunlight through its dome to create a “rain of light.” Here, you can witness the progress of science and art as it’s presented in Abu Dhabi.
Highlights
The essential tour in English is conducted every day from 11 a.m. to 2. p.m. It will guide you to all the must-see artefacts and antiquities in the Louvre. The Architecture tour happens every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday. Special tours for kids will provide a wealth of knowledge for children, and adults can equally participate in them.
Prices and Tickets
The ticket price for visitors between 13 and 22 is 30 dirhams, while the regular ticket price is 60. Children below the age of 13 are eligible for free entry, and tickets can be booked either online or brought from the museum. If looking for a place to stay, the likes of Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara is an option.
