It is a unique place with modernity and serenity juxtaposed. It is a long walk for elderly people. Circular Quay metro can take us right to this place.
Worth a visit!

It is a beautiful symbol of a human spirit, imagination, creativity, and ability to overcome challenges. It is a people's place. Come and be part of it.

If you want to go on a tour inside the Opera House, buy tickets online to select the day and time available, and then arrive to the Welcome Center, which is located underground on the left side 15 min ahead of your time.

Also, if you can, come on Saturday and hang around until about 9 PM to see a fireworks 🎆
Magnificent building. Lots of stairs but walkable. 1 hour tour and learn alot. Scenic photos of the Criuse Ship and The Bridge. Great shop when you depart to buy souvenirs where you can catch taxis.
The place is spectacular. The building itself is a picture of amazing architecture from the outside. It sit on the shore of the Sidney Harbour with the famous Harbour bridge in its shadow. The jewel of this experience was being able to actually listen to a performance inside. This is once in a lifetime opportunity that is worth every effort of a long flight and overcoming jet lag.

Beautiful building. We took the basic tour. Some of the aspects were gimmicky, but gave you an opportunity to visit the main concert hall and other areas. Check out the free Sydney museum first which has a section about the Opera House. Tickets had a large weight time which is why we saw the museum prior.

This was my first trip to Sydney, and the Opera House is majestic. It's so much better in real life than any picture you will ever see. We did a guided tour and went back the next day to watch a show. We loved both of these and highly recommend that everyone should definitely take the time to go for the tour and check out a show.

An iconic bucket list venue, my first visit. Beautiful harbour views though super crowded around the venue, plan ahead!
We saw Gatsby at the Green Light, interesting dance moves though lacked a story line and turned a little burlesque/odd in the last few scenes 🤔
Best New year destination because of various reasons. It's summer and the weather is perfect. The crowd are amazing. No crime in the city and it's kept very clean. The fireworks from cruise is just spectacular. Travel may get a little tricky.

An incredible gallery with a highly professional team and a careful curation of artists (from Aboriginal to contemporary Australian). An absolute must-see if you are in Sydney!

Artworks pictured below are by Marie Pol.

Beautiful art pieces. Features original art, semi classic, and abstract. Definitely worth seeing!
I had the best experience possible at Wentworth Gallery at Martin Place. Michele Knox was just invaluable in assisting me with my purchase of the nicest piece ever by Mel Brigg. Every interaction has been brilliant and made everything so easy. I never felt any pressure or sales tactics, just a desire to help me make the right decision. Thank you Michele and Wentworth Gallery!
What is there not to love about the Opera House. I attended the Australian Chamber Orchestra performance and set second row to the right. The performance was moving. I marveled at the opportunity to hear instruments from hundreds of years ago. A magical moment. You can feel the history and the artistry as you walk in. The views from the balcony are spectacular.

What a beautiful place! We were unable to get a tour but we did walk all around it and inside. There is a little gift shops and plenty of restrooms. Walkable from about every area in Sydney. Beautiful architecture.

An iconic landmark that everyone will come visit if you visit Sydney. We came here the first night we arrived at Sydney and we visit night and day. You can take metro or boat here. Definitely worth a visit and they have a light show in June which is super cool! I love it!

Only put in 5star for architectural purposes. Unfortunately much of the venue was barricaded off but it is a unique and beautiful building. Go to Sydney museum for full history as the architect was not invited to the opening. Great building which all Australians should be proud of.

The guided tour here is great, with a great balance of the technical and the historical. Really lovely clarity from the guide over headphones and you get a real sense of both the amazing story behind it and it being a working iconic performing arts venue.

Sadly, the eating venues were too busy to redeem the walking tour lunch but it’s valid up to 18:00.

Beautiful place design and atmosphere! So relaxing, no stress when walking around with your phone, and all your needed belongings. 0%crime as I wad told by many people. I believe its a city were you can feel totally safe. 🇦🇺💚 My favorite so far!!!
The Sydney Opera House is an iconic landmark that exceeded all my expectations. The architecture and design are simply breathtaking, and the location on Sydney Harbour is picture-perfect. I had the opportunity to attend a performance and it was an unforgettable experience. The acoustics in the concert hall were outstanding, and the production was world-class. The staff were friendly and accommodating, ensuring that all guests had a wonderful experience. In addition to the performance, the Opera House offers tours that provide fascinating insights into the history and construction of this magnificent building. Overall, I highly recommend a visit to the Sydney Opera House, whether it's to attend a performance or just take in the beauty of the architecture and stunning views of the harbour.

Awesome service, Christina a star. No pressure sales. Helpful and thoughtful. Bringing the art options to our home and hanging on the spot was amazing - whole experience first class.

We have enjoyed our dealings with Wentworth Gallery. Christina has guided us through the process of purchasing a beautiful piece of Australian art by Ken Knight.

This is the first time we have purchased a - for us - expensive work & it was good to have Christina's reassurance throughout.

We can certainly highly recommend Wentworth Gallery & would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

Iconic world famous structure. The area and promenade is beautiful to walk around. The structure itself is nice and unique. Try to visit during night and day to get different prospectives. Extremely busy in the evenings where people sit and drink in opera bar.

I've been purchasing artwork from Wentworth Gallery for over a year now. They have the best service and artworks. Christina goes above and beyond to help us find the right pieces of artwork for each space in our house. I would like to thank Christina and her team!!! Keep up the awesome work and look forward to purchasing more incredible pieces of artwork.
Great night at the gallery. Great display of Australian and oversea art. Friendly and helpful staff.

This is a truly special place. We walked into the gallery and were immediately drawn to a piece by Gloria Petyarre. Christina was really helpful, pulling down canvases for us to make a decision. In the end we did not purchase at the time. However, two years later, when we made a decision to buy, we contacted the gallery. Not only was Christina immensely helpful and responsive, but she remembered us. She made the whole process of purchase and shipping super easy and even offered advice on how to frame the piece. An amazing experience!
