The theatre is magnificent and luxurious, completely different from the style of the domestic theater, the beauty of European architecture.
There are so many theaters here, and I can imagine the locals are very literate.
The Teatro della Pergola is a historic opera house in Florence, Italy. It is located in the centre of the city on the Via della Pergola, from which the theatre takes its name. It was built in 1656 under the patronage of Cardinal Gian Carlo de' Medici to designs by the architect Ferdinando Tacca, son of the sculptor Pietro Tacca; its inaugural production was the opera buffa, Il potestà di Colognole by Jacopo Melani.[1] The opera house, the first to be built with superposed tiers of boxes rather than raked semi-circular seating in the Roman fashion,[2] is considered to be the oldest in Italy, having occupied the same site for more than 350 years.
A real XVIII century theatre never been rebuit. Awesome!NB all the DRIVING distances indicated in this guide are much bigger than WALKING distance which has no compulsory itinerary
The theater is very tall.
