Lonely Planet review

The functional Fascist-era exterior of Rome's premier opera house makes the plush red and gilt interior a stunning surprise. It has an impressive history: it premiered Puccini's Tosca , and Maria Callas sang here. Built in 1880, it has great acoustics, but contemporary productions don't always match the splendour of the setting. From July to mid-August, performances shift outdoors to the Roman Terme di Caracalla, an unparalleled location.
