It's about 1.3 kilometers and about a 12 minute walk.
the Louvre is in Paris, where are you
The Louvre museum is the largest in the world and the Smithsonian is the largest in the United states. Louvre, Located in Paris, France, the Louvre displays over 35,000 pieces of art. The museum owns a much larger collection but most of the pieces are kept in storage. Periodically, the museum rotates its collection. The museum has been open since 1793, although the building itself dates back to medieval times when it was a military fortification. In terms of area in a single location, the Louvre in Paris is by far the largest single-location museum and gardens complex in the world. It is surpassed in the size of collection (~1 million at the Louvre) by The Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia (~3 million pieces); both of them are dwarfed by the collection of the Smithsonian Institution of the United States (~136 million pieces) and the British Museum (160 million piece, but that total includes the books of the British Library).
The distance from New York to hotel Du louvre is 3,624 miles.
you just have to cross the Rue de Rivoli to go from the Louvre pyramid to the Palais-Royal.
Notre-Dame to the Louvre is a pleasant stroll. You could walk to the Eiffel Tower from there, but it's about 2 miles. Plenty to see on the way, though. The whole walk would make a good day's sightseeing.
It was hidden in safe places far from Paris.
Some do like it, whilst others consider it to be too modern. The pyramid created by I.M. Pei is a glass structure that seems to some residents of Paris to be far too modern and not in keeping with the true sense of the old lines of the Louvre. Others consider it to be a modern update to an "oldern museum" and so in keeping with a sense of the 21st century. It is basically the same debate that occured over the Tour Eifell, to which most Parisians became accustomed to and ultimately in love with.
Drumheller. Not far from Drumheller (just west of the city) is the dinosaur museum the Royal Tyrrell Museum.

Well, so far that I've learned (im doing a research project on this for school, and I've actually VISITED the Musee du louvre), la pryrimide inversee or the inverse pyramid was built by I. M. Pei. This stands in the "courtyard of the building in all its glory. It is actually aa amazing as it sounds, trust me. Also, it was built as a palace at first, so it has one larger end, with two long, skinny arms coming off. Also, I think (if i remember correctly), that the outside was completely made out of stone, or at least most of it was. It also has an underground, more modern area, were the "inverse" of the pyramid was located. It was so cool since it was completely made of glass. It was also in my favorite movie, The Da Vinci Code, which had Tom Hanks, I think, in it. The only thing that could've made the movie better was if Sandra Bullock was in in. Also, the Rose Line, the original meridian running from the North to South Poles, runs through La Pyramid Inversee. I also learned that from the movie. Yes, it's that awesome.
The Philadelphia Museum of Art is by far the best museum in Philadelphia. You may also want to check out the Liberty Bell while in town if you like that kind of thing.
About 5 miles.
