China National Opera House Theatre guide and tickets

Rating:

The China National Opera House Theatre has made its final appearance, located outside the East Second Ring Road in the center of Beijing. The theatre is about 138 meters long from east to west, 56 meters wide from north to south, with a total building height of 47.2 meters and a total construction area of ​​41,000 square meters.

The China National Opera House Theatre is a first-class opera house that combines Chinese cultural elements with European classical architectural styles. Among them, the 18 28- meter-high columns in the foyer of the theatre have different twisting angles, just like the dynamic twisting of phoenix tail feathers. The extremely flexible oval-shaped auditorium radiates spirally, like the musical light shed by a phoenix as it takes off. The interior color combination of golden yellow and red is more in line with the concept of integrating Chinese cultural elements with European classical architectural styles.

The theatre can be compared with the world's first-class theaters. It adopts a traditional horseshoe-shaped structure, and its "balcony + box" design is the first of its kind in a domestic opera house theatre.
