The Musée de l'Orangerie is a gallery of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings and while the larger-than-life Water Lilies by Monet are definitely the main event, they're far from the only reason to visit. Located in an old orangerie in the heart of Paris, this museum is notable for having an impressive amount of Monets in a decadently light and airy setting. The museum also displays works by the likes of Cézanne, Matisse, Picasso, Renoir, and Rousseau, among others.
Super easy to redeem; it was a scorching hot day and the queues for non-reservations seemed so long. Luckily, we got through seamlessly — no queue at all! Worth the money.
With a booked time slot, we had to wait only a short while compared to the terribly long line of those who had yet to secure tickets. Once inside, it was a rather busy but you could still get a chance to enjoy each art work at your leisure. Definitely worth several return visits!
