PA_1487 [30 points]

Finally two new invaders in Paris after almost 5 months without any invasion in the capital of France and the world capital of space invaders. Together with PA_1486 this new one woke up the FlashInvader fans. Worldwide this was number 4120. A new space invader in town results in a lot of quick visitors flashing the new space invader like this man on his Vélib' bicycle.

FlashInvaders onscreen message: SMILE!

When this was unveiled, opera goers were divided over whether it was an improvement or not.

The Opéra Garnier is a national theater which has the vocation to be an academy of music, choreography and lyric poetry; it is a major element of the heritage of the 9th district of Paris and the capital. It is located on the Place de l'Opéra, at the northern end of the Avenue de l'Opéra and at the crossroads of many roads.

 

The building is a particularly representative monument of the eclectic architecture and historicist style of the second half of the 19th century. Based on a design by the architect Charles Garnier, chosen following a competition, its construction, decided by Napoleon III as part of the transformation of Paris led by the prefect Haussmann and interrupted by the war of 1870, was resumed at the beginning of the Third Republic, after the destruction by fire of the opera Le Peletier in 1873. The building was inaugurated on January 5, 1875 by President Mac Mahon under the Third Republic.

  

The famous theatre for opera and ballet was built between 1862 and 1875.
