Sydney Opera House
(Japanese)


The Sydney Opera House faces Sydney Cove, and it is in the good place which adjoined the Royal Botanic Garden. That appearance makes image some white sails, and it fits in the blue sky and the sea well.

I visited the Sydney Opera House twice on foot from the hotel which was close to the port which we stayed. While we stayed unfortunately, a performance wasn't held. And, I could visited only a lobby because I couldn't adjust a schedule to the time of the study tour.

Note:
Scandinavian architect Jorn Utzen wined in the competition of the world scale, and it is said that Sydney opera house was a little amended in the execution and the point of the cost of construction after that.
A concert hall and an opera (drama) theater and some play grounds are inside the Opera House. The Opera House was officially opend by Queen Elizabeth …  in 1973. The Sydney Opera House became one of the landmark of Australia.
