Located at the Place de l’Opera, the Opera de Paris Garnier was designed by Charles Garnier for Emperor Napoleon III. It is located in the 9e arrondisement, just north of the 2e arrondisement. Started in 1862, the construction of the opera was not completed until 1875, partly because an underground lake was discovered during construction. However, the majestic Opera Garnier is now mainly used for ballet performances since the construction of the modern Opera de Paris Bastille in 1989. Officially renamed ‘Palais Opera’, the building is one of the largest theaters in the world by acreage, even though the opera has a seating capacity of less than 2,200. It is 172 meter long, 125 meter wide and reaches a height of 736 meter (564 x 410 x 241ft). It is decorated with rose marble columns, friezes, sculpture groups and two large gilded statues. The interior of the building is more magnificent than its exterior. The marble Grand Staircase is 30m/98 ft high and the 54m long Grand Foyer features a mosaic covered ceiling and a large number of chandeliers.
