explanation: Located on the southern shore of Seine river in Paris, Orsay museum opened in 1986 by transforming a century old railroad station. It exposes all the arts such as painting, sculpture and photography from the middle of 19th century to the WWI, especially the impressionism, in order to fill up the gap between the classic period of Louvre museum and of contemporary period of Georges Pompidou center.
