If you prefer to move at your own pace, there's also a good self-guided audio tour. So what is the best way to see the whole of the Palais Garnier?Įven if you aren't committing to a show here-which we highly recommend-the public tours are an unmissable experience and worth every penny. The building's opulence is a humbling, stunning testament to this city's centuries-long commitment to the arts. Admission costs about 14 euros, but it's well worth it-walking through these public spaces is like walking into the Paris of the past. Inside, make sure to channel your best "Phantom of the Opera" moment on the iconic lobby's Grand Staircase, a triumph of decadent Parisian design. The facade is covered with ornamentation and busts, as well as l'Harmonie and La Poésie, the two gilded copper statues flanking the entrance from on high.
The pinnacle of Napoleon III architecture, the resplendent Palais Garnier opera house is opulent from every angle. What's the history behind the Paris opera house?
