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.

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.

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.
There are a lot of people selling tickets for opera performances at the door, but in fact, entering the ticket office of the opera house will be better/more direct than they sell; the traditional SALOME last night was quite good, and the remaining fares were close to 200 euros; When the staff at the ticket office saw that I was hesitant to mind the fare, I suggested the way to queue up outside Ximen before 8 o'clock to buy a station ticket. Sure enough, I bought a station ticket for 15 euros (there are three station tickets for 13/15/18 Europe). Unfortunately, because there are no seats, the station ticket really becomes a station ticket. I used to buy tickets for the station but I had no luck sitting down after I entered the venue.
Remember the opera house war in "Spy 5", which happened at the Vienna State Opera. The Vienna State Opera was built in 1861 and completed in 8 years. It is located on the ring road of the old city of Vienna. It is originally the Royal Palace Theatre, known as the "World Opera Center", and is also the main symbol of Vienna.
Vienna, the capital of art, is a beautiful city full of artistic atmosphere, the city's architecture, planning, transportation, landscaping, and the Danube River passing through the city, all of which can not tell the taste of this city. Since it is the capital of art, how can there be no opera house? Recommend a tour!
