Amazing palace 🇫🇷

#paristrip This summer, I visited the breathtaking Palais Garnier in Paris, and it was an unforgettable experience! 🏛️🇫🇷 Located in the 9th arrondissement, this iconic opera house is a masterpiece of architecture and opulence. The entrance fee is around 14 euros, which grants you access to explore its lavish interiors and rich history. From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the grandeur of the Grand Staircase, with its magnificent marble and gilded decorations. The Grand Foyer felt like stepping into a royal palace, adorned with chandeliers, frescoes, and mirrors that reflected the opulence. The highlight was definitely the auditorium, where the ceiling painted by Marc Chagall and the enormous crystal chandelier took my breath away. Don't miss the opportunity to visit the library-museum within the opera house, which showcases fascinating artifacts and costumes from the history of French opera. After exploring, I took a leisurely stroll to the nearby Galeries Lafayette for some shopping and enjoyed a coffee at one of the chic cafes in the area. For an added treat, you can book a ticket to a ballet or opera performance if time allows. The Palais Garnier offers a glimpse into the elegance and cultural richness of Paris. #palaisgarnier #parisopera #summerinparis #travelfrance #architecturalwonders
