Legion of Honor Free Guide to See Monet
💫 The Legion of Honor is one of my favorite museums, often referred to as the 'Little Louvre of the Bay Area.' Not only does it have a rich artistic atmosphere inside, but the exterior architecture is also exquisite and elegant, making it perfect for photos📸. This time, I came specifically to see Monet's classic painting 'Water Lilies,' and it was truly worth the trip. Absolutely stunning😍!
🎯 Must-See Highlights:
1️⃣ Monet's 'Water Lilies': In addition to this classic piece, there are several other Monet paintings on display, all with soft colors and rich charm🖼️.
2️⃣ Rodin's 'The Thinker': This sculpture exudes a strong artistic vibe and is impressive to see in person🤔.
3️⃣ French Court-Style Rooms: These rooms recreate the luxurious style of the Louis XVI period, both magnificent and intricate💎👑.
4️⃣ 'Portrait of Hyacinthe': This painting depicts a French actress, with lifelike details and a beautiful portrayal✨.
5️⃣ Pointillist 'Eiffel Tower': The Eiffel Tower is presented with unique pointillist techniques, offering a distinctive charm🎨.

🎫 The regular ticket price is about $20, but here are some ways to save money👇:
