The entryway, i think, is kind of tacky, especially considering the priceless art inside. However, you just cant go anywhere near paris and not spend a day or two in the Louvre! I personally think you just cant fully enjoy the whole museum in just one day. I could spend an entire day just with the sculptures alone! (And I am no “refined, high culture god”!) I dont particularly like Paris that much, but a visit to the Louvre makes up for the rudeness of the people there.
