Life advice: If you come to Beijing, you must visit the Central Opera House

Thanks to a friend's gifted ticket, I visited the Central Opera House: · 1⃣️ As soon as you enter, you have to climb high steps, instantly feeling grand and ceremonious. The ceiling of the inner hall is decorated with the Bao Xiang flower pattern from the Tang Dynasty, giving it a very luxurious and magnificent look. 2⃣️ Originally seated on the seventh floor, but due to fewer people below, I was "upgraded" to the first floor. I must say, it was truly two completely different viewing experiences! The top seats in the opera house and the top seats at a concert are not the same concept at all. If it's a concert, I think sitting above is also good, as it won't affect the auditory experience. But if it's an opera, wanting to see the actors' facial expressions, the front row of the stage is really shocking and more immersive. 3⃣️ The stage effects are truly stunning, with sound, projection, and lighting all being particularly realistic, providing a dreamy visual experience. · 🎭 Tips for watching performances: 1️⃣ Remember to turn off or mute your phone to avoid disturbing others. 2️⃣ Arrive early so you can better appreciate the theater's interior decorations. 3️⃣ Front seats offer a better experience, especially for operas, as you can see the actors' facial expressions change. · 📍Location: No. 115 Dongzhong Street (about 500 meters walk from Exit C of Dongsi Shitiao Subway Station)
