I have to say, when I arrived here, I was truly amazed! The unique architectural design, with its smooth curves both inside and out, without any sharp 'corners', all the photos above are from the free areas. The staircase gets narrower as you go higher, and you can see directly down to the first floor, which really makes your legs feel weak as you climb...

The Taichung National Opera House was designed by world-class architect Toyo Ito. It is the first building in the world to use curved walls as the main structural support. The exterior of the opera house is composed of 58 curved walls and 29 caves, forming flowing spaces of different sizes, separated but connected to each other, like an organic form, showing freedom and intimacy with people. The design concept of the Opera House is "Bel Canto Culvert", which uses modern technology and building materials to liberate the hard and indifferent environment and transform the straight and hard urban outline into a soft field full of life force. The flowing water surrounding the venue and the image of the sky garden on the sixth floor break the binary distinction between stage and audience, indoor and outdoor, creating more possibilities for people to dialogue with architecture and art, returning to the "human" feeling. The National Opera House combines leisure, art, nature and humanity. In addition to first-class performance venues, there are also good restaurants, coffee shops, bookstores and gift shops. From the sky garden on the sixth floor, you can enjoy the brilliant night view of Taichung City.

National Taichung Opera House is a great holiday destination for Taichung residents and foreigners! The opera house was designed by architect Toyo Ito, who was inspired by caves. The interior of the opera house is almost entirely composed of curves, making it very difficult to build. As soon as I walked into the opera house, I was amazed by the image of the cave! Being in such a space is a very enjoyable thing in itself. Walking around, every corner will bring you different scenery. The floor-to-ceiling windows are directly opposite to the Summer Green Park, and with the surrounding high-rise buildings, the view is great both during the day and at night. #Taiwan Local Tour

The first time I came to the Taichung Opera House, I didn’t actually book any performances. I just wanted to walk around this landmark building. From the outside, its unique design gives people a strong sense of literary and artistic atmosphere. The streamlined exterior wall is like a work of art, as if the building itself is telling a story. Walking inside, the space design is very open, and light shines in through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, making the entire interior look bright and lively. Walking up the winding stairs, you can occasionally see tourists stopping to take pictures, or just sitting quietly in a corner to relax. The various curves and cave-like structural designs inside the opera house bring a psychedelic feeling, as if people are walking in it, and their mood flows with the space, making them feel extremely relaxed. Although I didn't watch any performances this time, just strolling through this artistic space was already a rich visual feast. For those who like art and architecture, this place is definitely worth a visit. #Art Gallery #Literary Youth #Taichung #Taichung Opera House

#台灣景點 #台中景點 Taichung is a city with an artistic atmosphere. Since the completion of the Taichung Opera House, I especially like to visit the area where it is located every time I visit Taichung. There are Shin Kong Mitsukoshi and Dayuan Department Store near the Opera House, and it is close to Taiwan Boulevard and Tunghai University. There are special exhibitions from time to time in the courtyard, and there are restaurants and cafes. I think if I have time, I can book a seat and dine casually inside to deeply experience the unique architectural structure of the Opera House.
