One of the biggest tourist attractions in Paris abruptly closed its doors Monday, June 16. The move came amid a strike by staff at the Louvre Museum, who told CNN that they fear the building is being damaged due to too many tourists.
The halt in operations left thousands of visitors with tickets already purchased stuck in line beneath the Louvre Pyramid, as they were unable to move any further into the world-famous institution.
The closure is the latest development in a trend of people visiting tourist hotspots in droves, as the famous locations are often unequipped to handle such crowds.
