Patterned after the world-renowned Palais Garnier concert hall in Paris, the Hanoi Opera House is hailed as one of the most beautiful music halls in the whole world.

It was built in 1901 in a grand French architecture and since then has been booked almost the whole year playing world-class music to international audience.
Because of the prestige that the opera house possesses, the management has decided to conduct a tour to the elegant establishment to offer people the opportunity to have a sneak peak at behind-the-scenes of opera activities and learn about its interesting history and architecture.
The opera house has a website where the tour schedules are posted. Basic tours are conducted in English and Vietnamese. Other languages such as Italian, French, Russian and Japanese are available upon request. Group tours need to be registered and planned in advance at the Opera House. For individual visits though, they can simply show up at the entrance at least 15 minutes before the scheduled tour.
