我最喜欢的回忆是克服困难的过程，
任何一个在生活中勇于面对挑战的人都会同意。
--- 建筑大师贝聿铭
My favourite memory is the process of overcoming difficulties/obstacles,
anyone who dares to face challenges in life will agree.

In 1983, French President François Mitterrand proposed, as one of the Grands Projets of François Mitterrand the Grand Louvre plan to renovate the building and relocate the Finance Ministry, allowing displays throughout the building. Architect I. M. Pei was awarded the project and proposed a glass pyramid to stand over a new entrance in the main court, the Cour Napoléon.[31] The pyramid and its underground lobby were inaugurated on 15 October 1988. The second phase of the Grand Louvre plan, La Pyramide Inversée (The Inverted Pyramid), was completed in 1993. As of 2002, attendance had doubled since completion.[32]
