France Louvre Pyramids at Sunset

This photo captures the Louvre Pyramid (Pyramide du Louvre) in Paris during the blue hour, just after sunset

Location: Cour Napoléon, in front of the Louvre Museum

Blue Hour (about 20–40 minutes after sunset) is magic here. The glass pyramid glows from within, and the sky gives you that rich cobalt backdrop.

Early Morning (sunrise) is quiet and beautiful with soft light and almost no people.

After Rain: Puddles turn the entire courtyard into a mirror. Perfect for reflections.

Bring a tripod: Long exposures work beautifully here to smooth out crowds or water ripples.

You can walk or take the Metro to Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre. Once you exit at Palais Royal – Musée du Louvre, follow the marked signs for the Louvre Museum.
