Musee d'Orsay

Currently waiting for dessert on fifth floor cafe at Musee d'Orsay.  Feet already tired but many paintings yet unseen.

The Musee d'Orsay is housed in what long ago used to be a railway station, right beside the river and across from the Louvre, but is now a large gallery containing mainly the work of the impressionists.  There are many rooms of paintings, and sculpture of all sorts down the centre of the huge space inside.  Highly recommended.

We spent a long time there (not only because it was raining outside) along with thousands of others enjoying the art and crowding the restaurants and cafes.
