A Walk-Through the World's Greatest Museums

BENGALURU: For centuries, the world’s most valuable collections in art and history were hidden in some dark castle, accessible only to the elite. But things have changed, as museums have become the shining symbols of every nation’s culture and heritage. The following is a list of the world’s top ten museums based on their collections.

Le Louvre, Paris, France

Le Louvre houses the world’s most admired and researched painting––Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. The Louvre, once a medieval fortress and the palace of the Kings of France, is the world’s most visited museum and home to some incredible collection. Its main highlights are the Winged Victory of Samothrace, Venus de Milo, Virgin of the Rocks, Hammurabi’s Code of Laws and other 35,000 masterpieces. The I.M.
