Fodor's Expert Review Opéra de Monte-Carlo
Monaco
Arts/Performance Venue
In the true spirit of the town, it seems that the Salle Garnier Opera House, with its 18-ton gilt-bronze chandelier and extravagant frescoes, is part of the casino complex. The designer, Charles Garnier, also built the Paris Opéra, so we are talking one fabulous jewel box. On display are some of the coast's most significant performances of dance, opera, and orchestral music.
