Decisions that shape the visit

Continue at your own pace

Louvre and Orangerie are different museum choices; select one interior if the half-day is short.

Louvre Museum — 1st · 3 h

Musée de l’Orangerie — 1st · 1 h 30

Palais-Royal garden and galleries — 1st · 45 min to 1 h 30

Linked visits are alternatives or continuations, not a claim that all are adjacent.

What to look for on site

The main axis connects the Louvre side with Concorde, while side paths let you slow down among planting and sculpture. Choose your exit for your next visit.
