The Musee d'Orsay is lovely and well worth a visit. I spent almost 3 hours there. It seemed a little busy but there were enough rooms and areas to explore that I didn't feel crowded. The more well known art pieces, which can be found on the 5th level, are obviously going to draw more people to them. The Opera Garnier is gorgeous! I highly suggest going early. I arrived a little before 10 to join the queue. I was in the first group of people to enter so I was able to quickly get some photos with little to no other people in them. I spent a full hour doing my own self guided tour. I would love to go back some day for an after hours tour and maybsee more behind the scenes things.
