We are all familiar with the world famous photos of the Sydney opera house. Seeing it with your own eyes seems quite a different story, though. Jorn Utzon’s renowned design is even more spectacular than I would have imagined!

Be it in the twilight or gleaming in the sunshine, Jorn Utzon’s Sydney opera house is a captivating phenomenon.

Sydney Opera House Shell Structure

Experiencing the shell structure personally makes a deep impression both visually and physically.

I warmly recommend the 1 hour Essentials Guided Tour. Tour guide Nick does an awesome job in introducing the main aspects of the building. Here’s a comprehensive description by another visitor.
