Metropolitan Opera house

I have been to the opera two times here in New York. Just being inside such a great building and seeing these amazing performers are something you remember for a long time. We bought the tickets while we were there, and though the seats we bought were not the best, just being there and experiencing a big opera on stage is something I would recommend. 

The stairs leading up to the area welcomes you in many languages. 

There are two really large paintings on the wall in the entrance hall. Right now I can´t remember the painter, but they sure are worth checking out. 

I sat in front of this fountain "people watching" in September 2011 during NYFW. The only famous person I saw was Olivia Palermo. I shot a few pictures, but then I lost my camera! Oh, well, she was smaller than I thought, and very thin, but just as pretty as I imagined her to be in real life. 

Anyway, this fountain is great. The water pressure changes all the time. 

Metropolitan Opera house is located on Broadway and 66th street.
