Palais Garnier

Unclaimed

Absolutely stunning. We went for a ballet and got tickets on the balcony area. Such a cool experience. The side balcony seats have an obstructed view of the stage but it’s still very cool. It had a touch more space than the regular seating. A terrific experience.

An incredibly beautiful building with a rich history. It’s wonderful that there is access to this architectural gem. At first, when you enter, it feels very crowded. And yes, there are indeed a lot of people, but on the upper floors it’s much calmer, and you can take amazing photos and truly enjoy the atmosphere.

Incredible building that you must see while in Paris. It is more beautiful than words can describe. Make sure you allot at least an hour and a half to spend exploring. We did the self guided tour and were not disappointed. We purchased tickets ahead of time which I highly recommended doing.

? Virginia’s Tour in English: The Mystery & Majesty of the Paris Opera House ? If you’re looking for a tour that blends elegance, history, and spine-tingling mystery with a guide who brings it all to life—look no further than Paris Opera House experience by Virginia! With her sparkling wit and contagious enthusiasm, Virginia didn’t just explain the history—she performed it. It felt like we were walking through a living novel, with Virginia as our charming narrator. Thank you so much!

History is the word to describe this place. Not only the building, but also its context, such as the inspiration for *The Phantom of the Opera*, deserves several hours. Take many pictures of the walls, ceiling, sculptures, costumes, and the entire building. It is one of the most beautiful opera houses in the world. They have a inside store to buy books souvenirs and everything regarding the place.
