Today I had decided with two of my colleagues to meet at the Louvre Abu Dhabi for a bit of a walk-around and a chat. Louvre Abu Dhabi re-opened a few weeks back, and you are welcome to visit, although there are the usual restrictions in place obviously - like to wear mask and gloves.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem many people are taking advantage of the museum being open again - these were the only cars in the car park:
It felt extremely safe visiting the museum. All touch screens have been removed and there are no printed guides, instead you are encouraged to download their app which will guide you through the museum. There are also plenty of social distancing markers and you walk along specified routes with special entrance and exit points, as to not cross over paths.
But apart from the three of us, we only saw two other families during our visit, and that was in the café! We walked through all the galleries completely on our own! I highly recommend if you are staying in Abu Dhabi for the summer holidays, to make a visit to the LAD now; it is so enjoyable when you have the whole place to yourself! Like a private visit!
We just wanted to check if they had changed anything around in the galleries, or rotated any art work, so we moved about pretty quickly. Everything was still the same. Felt so good to be back!
Such a lovely morning! Even with mask and gloves on!
