Chinese opera is one of the oldest dramatic art forms in the world. These traveling troupes are preserving an essential cornerstone of culture and heritage dating to the seventh-century Tang Dynasty (618 to 907). The performance mixes martial arts elements, singing, and dancing, accompanied by music played on traditional Chinese instruments.
Performances are free — shrines around the country pay the troupes. The best chance to catch a show is around major holidays and festivals like Chinese New Year and the vegetarian festival. © Dennis Thern

Sydney Opera House
Sydney is the state capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in Australia and Oceania with an estimated population of 4.76 million. Although the area around Sydney has been inhabited by indigenous people for tens of millennia, the first British settlers arrived in 1788 and founded Sydney as a penal colony. Since convict transportation ended in the mid 1800's the city has become a global cultural and economic centre. The name Sydney is derived from Thomas Townshend, Lord Sydney, who was responsible for authorizing the establishment of the settlement.
