Royal Opera House
The Royal Opera House is the third theatre on the Covent Garden site, the previous two being destroyed by fire. The new building opened in May 1858 becoming known as the Royal Opera House in 1892. Restoration work began again in 1996 and was completed in December 1999. Thousands of visitors each year are welcomed through the doors not only for performances but to marvel at the views from the Amphitheatre Terrace, to enjoy lunch, shop or wander round the exhibitions and appreciate the `wow´ factor on entering the Floral Hall. With the addition of lifts and escalators, this is one of the most accessible theatres in Britain today.
