With the Orangerie reopened and natural light being the important thing, is there a best time to view Monet%26#39;s Water Lilies?
Many thanks in advance.

probably next year! I just went by there on the 17th and the line was about 300 people deep.
The lighting comes thru the new roofing, I believe, so maybe it%26#39;s best in the early afternoon (last I read, doesn%26#39;t open %26#39;til 12:30 anyway).
I%26#39;m going to give it a try next visit.

Just returned from a 8 day trip in Paris. Tried to go to the Orangerie at 5:00PM on Wednesday. The museum is open until 7:00PM, however the guards were no longer letting people into the gate given the length of the line. We went back on Friday at 1:00PM. The line looked to be about 2-3 hours line. Fortunately for us we had our 6-day museum pass, so we were able to skip the line completely. We were inside the museum within 15 minutes. We felt terrible walking past everyone standing in line, but would not have otherwise seen these wonderful paintings. The museum and the paintings are just heavenly. Get a a multi-day museum pass. It saved standing in lines to the Orsay and Louvre as well.

I was there on the 17th and waited in line. I t moved pretty quickly and the admission was free! It%26#39;s worth the wait. The water lilies are framed against a white wall. It%26#39;S like like you%26#39;re watching a widescreen movie.

I went the other day Monday, May 29th and my %26quot;Museum Pass%26quot; got me to %26quot;jump the queue%26quot; - not alot to see in this museum, but it was nice.
Apparently this museum has been closed for a number of years due to renovations.
