The Louvre art museum in Paris will hike its basic entrance fee next year by 29%, adding to concerns that visitors coming to Paris for next year's Olympic Games will face spiralling costs.
The Louvre, which houses the Mona Lisa and is the world's most visited museum, said in a recent statement that its entrance fee would go up in January to 22 euros (RM113) from 17 euros (RM87). It is the first price hike since 2017.
