It has become an iconic landmark that is recognized worldwide, with prominent “sails” on the roof that harken back to the founding and settling of its home.
And this year the distinctive Sydney Opera House (below) in Australia turns 50.
Of course it has hosted wonderful productions of operas and countless classical music concerts. But it has also played a big role in the cultural, social ands political life of the city and the country.
The Ear found a terrific visual and historical overview of the famous building, both inside and out, that is also easy to navigate.
