The Opera House is undoubtedly Sydney's number one must-see destination, and the best way to experience it is to enjoy an opera performance inside. However, this is something you only see once in a while. While researching my itinerary, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that a medley of opera classics was happening on Sunday, September 28th, during my three-day stay in Sydney. Tickets on Ctrip were only a little over 300 RMB—an absolute steal! I booked it without hesitation. Around 2:30 PM that day, I presented my pre-printed ticket and entered the Opera House directly, no need to exchange tickets. The performance began promptly at 3:00 PM, and the four exceptional opera singers (one of the sopranos seemed Chinese) were exceptional. The performance lasted 90 minutes, including a 20-minute intermission. This type of performance is perfect for those of us who aren't opera enthusiasts, as the repertoire is full of familiar classics. Coupled with the superb performances, the voices, without microphones, were beamed to every seat in the auditorium. It was truly a truly remarkable artistic experience. If you have the opportunity to see such a performance in Sydney, don't miss it.
1. The most famous Sydney Opera House is surrounded by many of Sydney's most popular check-in spots: the Royal Botanic Gardens, the Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay, etc. 2. You can choose to tour the opera house or watch an opera to see the interior. 3. We checked out "Carmen," a very familiar opera in China with Chinese subtitles. The house was usually full, the actors performed excellently, and the audience was very polite.
There are many attractive and cost-effective places to visit around the Sydney Opera House. Here are some for you: Sydney Harbour Bridge The Sydney Harbour Bridge is across the sea from the Sydney Opera House. It is magnificent and is one of Sydney's iconic buildings. You can choose to take a walk in the park under the bridge to appreciate the grandeur of the bridge, or you can participate in the project of climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge (if your physical condition allows) to overlook the beautiful scenery of Sydney from a high altitude. The Rocks There are many old buildings in the alleys of the Rocks on the other side of Sydney Harbour, where you can learn about Sydney's early history. Now it has been transformed into a pedestrian street. In addition to restaurants and boutiques, there are also a number of museums, which are very good to visit. Royal Botanic Gardens The Royal Botanic Gardens is adjacent to the Opera House at the northwest end and is the oldest botanic garden on the Sydney Harbour. The botanic garden is full of century-old trees, and large green lawns have always been a great place for Sydney citizens to walk and picnic. Here you can also perfectly combine the Opera House and Sydney Bridge in the same picture, and the botanic garden is also very distinctive and ornamental. Mrs. Macquarie's Chair It is one of Sydney's famous attractions, located in the Royal Botanic Gardens, and was built in memory of Mrs. Macquarie. It is a great location to enjoy the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge, and is known as the Sydney version of the "Husband's Rock".
The Sydney Opera House is a miracle in the history of world architecture, perhaps because of its unique architectural style, or because it faces the sea, backed by the magnificent scenery of the Harbour Bridge, people are looking forward to. As soon as you walk near the Opera House, you will be sure to be attracted by the charm of the building. "This magnificent building is not only a symbol of Australian culture, but also a crystallization of human creativity." The opera house's architectural inspiration, construction history, selection of bricks and tiles, as well as stools, facilities and acoustic principles in the hall, gave me a deeper understanding of the building. I was struck by the history especially when I saw how the spheres were deconstructed and spliced into what they are now, and the time and cost of building them. At the Sydney Opera House, I could also enjoy the beautiful views of the Harbour Bridge. It is recommended to get off at Circular Quay ring terminal station and walk for 5 minutes. Remember to register in advance at the Lower Concourse registry office on the first floor, you can save your bag and collect your tickets. After the visit, you can go to the souvenir shop and buy some favorite medals and refrigerator stickers as a souvenir. The opera house at night is also well worth a visit, with street lights on and people around the ring pier enjoying a drink, music and the sound of seagulls making people feel the vitality of the city. The charm of the Sydney Opera House lies not only in its architectural style and location, but also in the story and history behind it. It was an unforgettable experience that gave me a deeper understanding and admiration of the building.

Sydney Opera House is definitely a must-visit landmark in Sydney! Whether you come or not, you will regret it. The key is how you play! [狗头] ⛵️ This "white shell palace" floating on the harbor is a postcard-level blockbuster! Looking from the Royal Botanic Gardens, the three groups of giant shells are like white sails setting sail, and the picture framed with the Harbour Bridge is breathtaking; take a closer look, the exterior wall is made of millions of cream-colored tiles, reflecting a pearl-like luster under the sun, and even the gaps are hidden with light and shadow magic. 📷 Photo recommendation: Looking across the sea at the cruise ship berth at Circular Quay, the overhead view of the rooftop in the Rocks, and capturing the sunset silhouette on the ferry deck in the evening. The night tour is even more amazing. The light show turns the shell into a giant curtain, and the blue-purple beams flow between the shells, like an alien spaceship landing. Remember to wear light-colored clothes, and any stop is an Instagram-style blockbuster! 🎵 If time permits, you can book a Chinese tour in advance (1 hour is enough), where you can listen to the legendary stories behind the building (the budget was overspent 14 times, the designer was fired midway), and unlock the mysterious corners that stop tourists. Baozi, who has rich musical cells, chooses an opera experience. When the lights in the dome go dark, you will understand why it is called the "heartbeat of Sydney"!
