2016 - Sydney - "THE" Opera House

            And how does one (or two) visit Sydney and not take a million photos of its unique and uniquely situated opera house?

A view from the north shore of Sydney harbour (Sydney Cove) above Jefffey Street Wharf.

The Opera House was inscribed in the World Heritage List in June 2007.

Sydney Opera House (1957 - 1973) is a masterpiece of late modern architecture. It is admired internationally and proudly treasured by the people of Australia. It was created by a young architect who understood and recognised the potential provided by the site against the stunning backdrop of Sydney Harbour. 

Denmark’s Jørn Utzon gave Australia a challenging, graceful piece of urban sculpture in patterned tiles, glistening in the sunlight and invitingly aglow at night. Jorn Utzon died in Copenhagen in November 2008 aged 90.
