L'Opéra Garnier


Although I've never been inside, I will never tire of photographing the exterior of the Opera Garnier.

Oh, Virginia, you should take the English tour one day. It's an amazing place. The inside stairs curve from top to bottom - I believe the stairs are concave at the foot of the staircase and convex when they reach the top. An amazing feat.
When I visited Paris the second time I had worked with the Head of the Wardrobe department when the company was in Brooklyn. I contacted her when I was there and got an extra special private tour of the backstage areas. I actually walked on the stage at Garnier. We also got employee tickets- a special rate- for the evening's performance.
A memory I will never forget.

Next time you must go inside, with or without the tour. It was made for your camera!

You must visit! It is an amazing building. One of my favorites in all of Paris. I love to think of the Phantom roaming around in it...
