Visita obligatoria si vas a la ciudad. Espectacular edificio tanto por fuera como por dentro. La visita guiada la tienes que reservar online. No suele tener problemas de fechas, pero tampoco hay horario para todo el día, consultar en la web. La guía de español muy amable, nos contó la historia, materiales de la construcción y anécdotas del lugar. Y para colofón, al final de la visita, nos ofrecieron una pequeña representación sentados en la escalera y muy cercana, donde puedes apreciar la acústica del lugar y la calidad de sus intérpretes.
La visita guiada a la Ópera de Budapest ha sido una experiencia fantástica. La guía explicó todo de forma clara y amena, y el edificio es impresionante. El mini espectáculo de ópera al final, interpretado por dos cantantes, fue precioso y puso la piel de gallina. Sin duda, merece la pena.
El efidicio es muy bonito, se ouede vistar por dentro con una visita guiada por 5000 florines en húngaro y por 10000 en inglés o español. Las entradas escasean así que recomiendo comprarlas con antelación. Ir a ver una obra ya es harina de otro costal, cada entrada se dispaea de precio si quieres un buen asiento.
