The Louvre in Paris, the world's most visited museum, received a record 10.2 million visitors in 2018.

巴黎卢浮宫，世界上客流最多的博物馆，2018年客流量1020万创记录。

The Louvre also mentioned in a statement Thursday the success of its flagship exhibition on French master Delacroix as a reason for the record.

The video of Beyonce and her husband Jay Z, featuring the Mona Lisa and other world-famous artworks, has been viewed over 146 million times on YouTube.

The museum notes a significant rise in the number of foreign visitors -- almost three-quarters of total visitor numbers -- mostly from the United States, China, other European countries and Brazil.

Tourism in the French capital has rebounded since 2017 after a sharp fall following 2015 terror attacks.
