    Beautiful as always. Takes the breath away. The stairs and the metro in front are popular meeting spots. You can spot exclusive events at the Opera from here - black cars everywhere

    A 15min walk from the Louvre, grab a coffee and muffin (I would avoid Starbucks) and sit on the stairs at the open area in front of the Opera building. These performers are great and deserve your €'s!

    Beautiful and great building done by architect Charles Garnier's plans and designs it which are representative of the Napoleon III style.🔆🇫🇷

    A free walking tour leaves from the steps at 10am. Great way to start my trip -- saw some of the major sites and got oriented in the city.

    The most beautiful building in Paris in my opinion. Spectacular at night all lit up especially when there's crowds at the opera. Amazing.
