Staying in Abu Dhabi?
Then you must visit The Louvre Museum!
And here are some facts to get your attention 👇🏼:
✨ As you know, we are here a lot about the most / the biggest / the coolest whatever and all other kind of Guianese records. Any thoughts on how much Abu Dhabi had to pay to Paris for the right to use the same name as the Louvre Museum in Paris? Think.. I’ll tell you in the end!
✨ The huge floating dome weighs approximately 7,500 tones, which is 300 tones more than the Eiffel Tower!
✨ The “museum city” covers nearly 97,000 m² area.
✨ Engineers had to move 503,000 cubic meters of sand to lay the foundations for the museum.
✨ There are much more to learn. Trust me, you will be impressed! But getting back to our first bullet-point, AD government had to pay 525 million USD for the right to use the “Louvre” name.
