点评:The Opera House is definitely worth a visit - it's so beautiful inside and has such a fascinating history. We opted to take the tour and I think it was really worth it. Our guide was really informative and friendly, and gave lots of really great info and tit-bits about the Opera House.
The small snippet of opera at the end of the tour is such a great way to end it - lighthearted and fun. The nearby cafe is lovely too.
My only issue is my mum found it a bit difficult getting around - she uses a cane and found the continuous up and down the stairs a struggle - and she wasn't the only one in the group. We did notice a lift, but this along with the bathrooms was cordoned off - I did ask t use the bathroom at one point and they refused which rubbed me the wrong way a bit.
The opera at the end also wasn't conducted on the stage - just in a stairway. It still sounded fantastic but it meant we had to sit on the stairs which again, was a struggle for my mum to get up from.
It was a real shame the lack of consideration as it was the only dampener on a really great experience.
翻译:歌剧院绝对值得一游——它的内部装饰非常精美,历史也引人入胜。我们选择了参观,我觉得非常值得。我们的导游知识渊博,热情友好,分享了很多关于歌剧院的精彩信息和趣闻轶事。
游览结束时欣赏一小段歌剧,为旅程画上圆满的句号——轻松愉快。附近的咖啡馆也很不错。
我唯一的问题是,我妈妈觉得行动不便——她拄着拐杖,上下楼梯很费劲——而且她不是我们团里唯一的一个。我们确实注意到了电梯,但电梯和卫生间都被封锁了——我曾经要求使用卫生间,但他们拒绝了,这让我有点不舒服。
最后的歌剧表演也不是在舞台上进行的,而是在楼梯上进行的。虽然听起来仍然很棒,但这意味着我们必须坐在楼梯上,而我妈妈起身又很费劲。
这真是太可惜了,因为缺乏考虑,这是这次真正美好体验的唯一阻碍。
