At well over 500 million dollars, it is also one of the most expensive opera houses ever built . It is located in the heart of Copenhagen - at Dokøen on the island of Holmen - just opposite the main castle Amalienborg and the Marble Church.
It was designed by the architect Henning Larsen and engineers Ramboll & Buro Happold and Theatre Consultant Theatreplan. The acoustics were designed by Arup Acoustics and architectural lighting design by Speirs and Major Associates. Construction began in June 2001 and was completed on October 1, 2004. It was opened on January 15, 2005 in the presence of Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller, Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen, and Queen Margrethe II.
It totals over 41,000 square metres and has got 14 storeys, of which 5 lie underground. 1,500 people can be seated in the main theatre.

The 5th International Ancient Arts Festival 5th December 2014on presented a leading Italian barihunk, Mattia Olivieri, playing Ram in dancer Reela Hota's ambitious opera, Ramleela.

Besides Mattia, there are two other Italian artists in Ramleela-Raffaele Abette (tenor), playing Lakshman and Federico Benetti (bass), playing both Janak and Hanuman. The opera music has been composed by the renowned master Antonio Cocomazzi. Fabrizio da Ros will be conducting the 28-member orchestra.
The Saigon Opera House, an opera house in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, is an example of French Colonial architecture in Vietnam.
Built in 1897 by French architect Ferret Eugene, the 800 seat building was used as the home of the Lower House assembly of South Vietnam after 1956. It was not until 1975 that it was again used as a theatre, and restored in 1995. (Wikipedia)
The Opéra Garnier is one of the Paris National Opera's two home venues in the city. It was built from 1861 to 1875 on a commission of Napoleon III, along with the Place de l'Opéra on which the building stands, at the intersection of Boulevard des Capucines and Avenue de l'Opéra. Inaugurated as "le Nouvel opéra de Paris" (the New Paris Opera), the venue became known as the "Palais Garnier" within the first decades of its existence, acknowleding the plans and designs of its architect Charles Garnier. The Paris National Opera now uses the Palais Garnier mainly for ballet. The Palais Garnier also houses the Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra de Paris (Paris Opera Library-Museum), although the Library-Museum is no longer managed by the Opera and is part of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.

Phantom of the Opera country. Totally OTT (but they should never have let Chagall near the ceiling).
