In many search for top things to do in Buenos, this theater comes up at the top. My goodness. Unfortunately, there isn’t any show while we’re here. Imagine flying all the way from the north …
Someone, such as National Geography considers it the top ten opera houses in the world.
It was opened in 1857. The current one was opened in 1908, with Verdi’s Aida. The most recent renovation was done in 2005-10.
There perhaps a tour to visit the theater, but we didn’t go for it.
