Oslo Opera House Travel Guide
Scenic spot introduction:
The Oslo Opera House (Operahuset, English Oslo Opera House) is the largest cultural building in Norway and an environmentally friendly building that relies on solar energy. This simple, modern building has a coherent shape and clear outline. It stands like an iceberg on the bay and is eye-catching. In particular, the white sloped roof is not only the best platform to view the scenery of Oslo, but also a good place for citizens to relax and perform in the open air. Many important performances are held here every year, and its advanced stage equipment and environment are also praised by industry insiders.Attractions distribution:
The Oslo Opera House is located in the Oslo Fjord area, adjacent to the Stock Exchange and Central Station. Outside the opera house is a sloping open-air platform and open-air restaurant. Visitors can enjoy the seaside or city scenery in any direction. The glass building exterior wall and the reflected scenery create a wonderful visual effect. Entering the hall from the main entrance, you can see the wide indoor space and the wooden exterior of the opera hall; the hall has advanced stage effects and comfortable auditoriums, as well as rehearsal rooms and studios behind the stage. The entire theater is also quite user-friendly and pleasant in terms of audience service.Scenic spot features:
