  • Berlin is an absolute must for opera lovers or those who want to give it a go. There are three opera houses in the centre of Berlin; all are heavily subsidised, resulting in modestly priced tickets without any sacrifice of quality. The most prestigious, where you are likely to find world class stars, is the Staatsoper on Unter den Linden, it has all the red plush and opulence of tradition. The Komisch Oper, also on U d L, is a charming, mirrored confection of a building which produces a wide variety of operatic offerings from Mozart to Lehar via Verdi. Finally the Deutsche Oper in Charlottenburg, again producing a wide variety of operas often adventurously and originally directed and starring internationally renown singers. Mingle with Berliners and have a drink/coffee and cake before the performance in an opera house bar. Choose your seat and buy your tickets on line, the sites are all easily navigated and located. I have a photograph but it's too large and I'm unable to manage shrinking it. Sorry...
