A bucket list item I crossed off in Paris was seei A bucket list item I crossed off in Paris was seeing Monet’s water lilies!
The Musée de l’Orangerie houses eight of Monet’s water lily series. Monet himself insisted on sky lights as part of the exhibit, so that his works could be viewed in natural light.
The museum also asks that you view them in quiet, making it a peaceful experience.
