The Opera House, the famous one! Inaugurated in 2008, this huge building that seems to emerge from the depths, in the heart of the bay of Bjørvika, is now on all postcards. If it is pleasant to walk on the roof of this giant, thought to be the terrace of Osloïtes and which offers a 360° view on the city and the fjord, it is also very interesting to visit the backstage! The Opera is actually composed of the Norwegian National Opera, the Norwegian National Ballet, the Norwegian National Orchestra, and the Norwegian National Opera Choir! So many people are busy in the corridors of the huge structure, whose backstage is partly open to visitors through large windows on the first floor: rehearsal rooms, costume and set design, etc. The Opera offers a rich program and is divided into three stages: the Main Chamber, the Second Chamber, and the Studio. The roof also serves as a stage for some concerts! In addition to the areas accessible to the public, rooms and adapted equipment allow the conception of performances from beginning to end within the building. The guided tour will take you behind the scenes of the fascinating world of the Oslo Opera House. If you were to see only a few places in Oslo, this is one of them. Its architecture, so cold, of marble, but so warm with its cylinders covered with honey-colored wood overlooking the fjord, manages to make us dream and takes us to another place...

la visite des coulisses est intéressante
vous pouvez faire une visite à l'intérieur en réservant sur le site Internet de l'opéra. Je le recommande car on peut voir les coulisses d'un théâtre que je n'avais jamais vu auparavant. L'extérieur est magnifique mais le toit est surtout une attraction touristique car il est en accès libre toute la journée (attention au sol qui présente des marches traîtres) et accueille également des rassemblements spontanés pour danser les soirs d'été.

Pour la vue
La vue depuis le toit permet d'avoir un beau panorama sur la ville et sur le fjord. Il est donc agréable d'y venir même juste pour grimper là-haut !

Endroit parfait pour les amateurs d'architecture contemporaine et de coucher de soleil.
Attention toutefois, j'ai vu plusieurs personnes trébucher.

Un iceberg en pierre!
Superbe bâtiment en marbre de Carrare (Italie) et granit blanc qui s’ouvre sur le fiord. L’intérieur est en chène d’Allemagne. Acoustique excellente : Je conseille vivement la visite guidée . A la sortie n’oubliez pas de monter, de l’extérieur, sur le toit de l’Opéra por jouir d’une magnifique vue sur la baie.
