Hanoi Opera House


The Hanoi Opera House is a magnificent 900-seat venue, dating back to 1911 and built in wonderfully elaborate French-colonial style.  Situated in central Hanoi, it was erected by the French colonial administration between 1901 and 1911. It was modeled on the Palais Garnier in Paris, and is considered to be one of the architectural landmarks of Hanoi. Performances of classical music and opera are periodically held here in the evenings.
