Day 17 – The Sydney Opera House

Today was all about the Sydney Opera House and the surrounding area. Not far from our hotel, we were able to walk to the opera house for our tour. The opera house has three different theaters, the largest of which is home to the Sydney Symphony. The second largest theater, the Joan Sutherland Theater, holds performances for the opera and the ballet companies. Between our hotel and opera house is The Rocks area that is a dining and shopping district, historically the first settlement of Sydney.
