Majestic and full of history, the Teatro Colon is the main Opera and Philharmonic venue in Buenos Aires. We were so thrilled to be here last night that we purchased tickets for tomorrow as well.

I have been there with English speaking guide tour. It was just wonderful. You should visit there if you come to BA.

They just renovated it and the tour is worth every penny!! Gorgeous! We also bought $10 standing room only tickets for the opera last night and it was a great value.

We did the tour, and although it was stunning and great to see it empty, I think I would have opted to see a concert there rather than the tour if I had the choice again!

Impressive architecture that you would not expect to find so well preserved. The tour, while more expensive for foreigners, was worth it.

if you have the chance to see ballet or listen to a concert you will love the building as well, you can also take a tour of the iconic porteño theater, Just check in their website. There are very low price tickets for some shows as well.

The building is an opulent and well maintained reminder of the days when Argentina was one of the richest countries on earth. Its history is remarkable, especially for fans of opera, as the main hall is reputed to have some of the best acoustics going.

If in Buenos Aires this beautiful, historical building is a must see. As they say, buildings are not built this way anymore. Make sure to bring your camera.

We didn't have the opportunity to go to a performance, so we decided to take the tour. The theater is gorgeous, and our guide was very good. It was most interesting to get the history, including the recent renovation.
