ABC Wednesday—O is for "opera"

I'm pretty sure I used "opera" for O in the
last round.  But that was the Metropolitan Opera
in NYC.  This is the Hungarian State Opera House,
 in Budapest.  This extravaganza of gilt and
red velvet was completed in 1884.

    Good to see that the old Opera houses are still well maintained.

    I always like the ornate nature of old opera houses. Certainly a lot of glitter about this one.

    I'm sure the acoustics are as beautiful as the building.
