Finally I got the chance to view the most famous painting in the world. I picked the first Sunday of the month when Louvre and most museums in Paris have no entry charge, the only drawback being the crowd during this day. I had planned to reach reach at 9am to Louvre, but my friend turned in very late and I watched the line at the entrance growing such that it circled the Louvre Pyramid. After the long wait, as soon as I entered I just rushed to the section where Mona Lisa is placed. The place was all crowded and the painting seemed very small as compared to other paintings and what I expected it to be. Its difficult to appreciate the painting and even give a thought as to why it is so famous. Perhaps it requires a different ambiance and timing and not a crowded day.
