Vienna Operahouse Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Vienna State Opera is one of the largest opera houses in the world, known as the "World Opera Center". Here you can experience beautiful performances by composers, conductors, soloists and dancers. Historical Background The Vienna State Opera was built in 1869. Its predecessor was the wooden box theater in Vienna Castle Square in the 17th century. In 1869, it was moved to the ring street in the urban area. In 1918, the Palace Theatre became a state-owned enterprise, called the National Opera House. Take a guided tour of the Vienna State Opera with a quaint appearance and a majestic Romanesque building. When you enter, you can find that the front hall and the side hall are made of marble, and the interior is painted with exquisite murals and hung with photos of great musicians and famous actors. Entering the stage area, you can see the audience seats on the 6th floor with more than 1,600 seats. The entire stage has been completely modernized, equipped with advanced audio equipment, with very good sound and color effects. Famous musicians perform here Musicians, directors and stylists all make it an artistic pleasure to present their work in front of the savvy and discerning Viennese audience. Famous musicians such as Mahler (1897-1907), Richard Strauss (1919-1924), Karajan (1956-1964) and Abbado (1986-1991) have all performed in the opera house.

Enjoying live performances from great musicians inside the historic Vienna Opera House in the City of Music🎶
Vienna State Opera is a large-scale opera house compared to the Golden Hall, and you can enjoy many opera projects here. There are many performances and time is also a lot of choices.
[View] The exterior of the building is dignified and atmospheric, the interior is decorated with gorgeous decoration, sculptures, paintings, beautiful lighting, and the auditorium is six floors high and luxuriously retro. It is not to listen to the opera, it is worth visiting. [Fun] As the hall of the world's opera world, the repertoire staged here is of great quality. Of course, there are also music shows for tourists in non-performance seasons, wearing court costumes and performing popular familiar music such as the Turkish Marche, the Radsky Marche, etc. The leader is also traditional costume, pretending to be an old empire. The theater has a large terrace, and the surrounding scenery can be seen during the intermission. [Cost-effective] is located on the boulevard around the city, with convenient transportation. The lowest fare is 50 euros. There are also local specialties on the first floor of the theater, Mozart chocolate.
There are many classic tracks, the command is very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, and the atmosphere on the spot is very good. The only suggestion is to choose a good location when buying tickets, and do not automatically send them.
