Opera Garnier, a theater filled with light and art

#JulyTravelSupport From the golden statues and marble staircases to the lobby with sparkling chandeliers and the inside of the performance hall with Marc Chagall’s painted ceiling… Every step of the Opera Garnier is a work of art. On nights when opera and ballet performances are held, this place still breathes as a cultural center. This theater is also famous as the setting for Gaston Leroux’s novel, “The Phantom of the Opera.” There is actually a space in the basement filled with water like a “lake,” adding to the realism of the story. The Opera Garnier, with its splendid architecture and layers of history, is a must-see for many visitors to Paris, as guided tours and free viewing are available even if you do not attend a performance. #ParisTravel #Paris
