Musee du Louvre & Kong






We get into the Louvre though the shopping mall called "Le Carrousel du Louvre". Louvre is huge, and the design was awesome, I love it a lot. If you can see, the elevator in the middle of the lobby, is a open space elevator, it was so cool, and we got a chance to ride it, because Maryam was sitting on a wheel chair, ha ha. We didn't have much time today, so we just stopped for the famous printings and sculptures. it was hard to get close to the Mona Lisa but unfortunately we couldn't take a picture of her, but I can feel her temperament from the printing, Da Vinci is a master of printing. La Victoire de Samothrace and La Venus de Milo are totally difference style, but both their painting are really good looking, I mean the curvy and detail was so good.

After that, We had a lunch date with Brooks's family to have in Kong. Kong is a restaurant which was designed by Jean-Jacques, and the arched glasses wall and the interior designed by Philippe Starck which mixed with the modern and Japanese culture. Also the big poster which was hanging on the ceiling was so cool, and Philippe added a woman head on the Louis Ghost Chair, and its wonderful too.

Today was our last day in Paris, I liked this city a lot, I get a lot of rich feelings from this country.
