三生灬万物:“The Vienna Music Association, also known as the Friends of Music Association, is one of the most famous music institutions in the world. Its core building is the world-famous Golden Hall. Architectural style • Exterior design: The Music Association building was built by Danish designer Theofer Hanssen between 1867 and 1869. The overall style imitates the Greek temple. The exterior walls are red, beige and gray. The front facade is supported by three goddess statues, which is classical and unique. • Interior decoration: The interior of the Golden Hall is magnificent. The surrounding walls are supported by Greek goddess columns. The ceiling is painted with exquisite oil paintings of Apollo, Muse and music angels. The hall also has busts of music masters such as Mozart, Brahms and Strauss. Sound effects •Acoustic design: The sound effects of the Golden Hall are known as the most advanced in the world. The architect hollowed out a space under the wooden floor of the high platform, carefully calculated the division of the upstairs box and the arrangement of the goddess columns on the wall, so that the sound of the band's performance vibrates and reverberates in the hall, and the lingering sound can enjoy the same level of music performance regardless of the distance and height of the audience. Performances • Quantity and quality of concerts: More than 900 concerts are held each year, including the year-round performances of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and performances by the world's top artists. The Vienna New Year's Concert on January 1st each year is even more eye-catching worldwide. • Program content: The performance content is rich and diverse, covering symphony, chamber music, solo and other forms, attracting music lovers from all over the world. Cultural and historical value • Historical evolution: Founded in 1812, it is one of the oldest and largest music organizations in the world. Many famous composers in history, such as Beethoven and Schubert, have close ties with the association. • Music Collection: Manages one of the most important music archives in the world, with a rich collection of music history, manuscripts, scores, musical instruments, etc. Visitor Experience • Ticket Purchase and Viewing: Visitors can watch concerts by purchasing tickets in advance or on-site, and standing tickets are available for some performances. When watching performances, the audience usually wears formal attire to show respect for music. • Visit and Learn: In addition to watching performances, visitors can also visit the exhibition hall and archives of the Music Association to learn about the rich music history and culture.”

It is not only a place of pilgrimage for music lovers, but also a treasure of cultural and historical intersections. Highly recommended to friends seeking a high-quality music experience!”

There are many oil paintings on the walls of the lounge and corridors, depicting the most exciting scenes in the best operas of the most accomplished musicians. At the top of the corridor near the main staircase, there are busts of music masters such as Haydn, Schubert, Brahms, Wagner, Strauss and his son, which highlights its profound cultural heritage. Facilities and functions • Auditorium and stage: There are six floors of auditorium, with a total of 1,642 seats upstairs and downstairs, 567 standing seats behind, and more than 100 boxes on the third floor. The total area of ​​the stage is 1,508 square meters, including the front stage, side stage and backstage. The total height of the stage is 53 meters and the depth is 50 meters. It can automatically rotate, rise and fall, and open and close horizontally. The orchestra pit is also very spacious, which can accommodate a 110-person orchestra, providing good conditions for performances. • Modern equipment: The restored theater equipment has been fully modernized and is more suitable for opera performances. It can broadcast live performances to radio stations in 50 countries or regions and 9 TV stations at the same time, meeting the needs of different audiences. Performances and reputation • Performance content and quality: The Vienna State Opera performs about 300 performances every year, including all the repertoires of classical operas. The theater stipulates that unknown works or debuts are not allowed to be performed, and only those masterpieces that have long been recognized can be performed. Its performance content is rich and varied, whether it is opera or ballet, the program is not repeated every day. At the same time, the theater employs a respected and skilled music master as the theater manager, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, which dominates the music world, as the permanent opera orchestra, and has hired world-renowned singers to play the leading roles in the opera at a high price, ensuring the high quality of the performance. • International reputation: The world's most famous composers, conductors, performers, singers and dancers are all honored to be able to perform at the National Opera. Its reputation is not only in Europe, but also in the world, and it has become an important symbol of Vienna, the land of music. Tourist Experience • Ticket purchase and viewing: Visitors can choose to buy concert tickets or standing tickets. The price of standing tickets is relatively cheap, and you can enter for only 3 or 4 euros, but you need to queue up in advance. The best seat in the audience is the box in the middle. If the emperor wants to come to enjoy the performance, the lights in the small box will be a symbol of music and culture.”

粟弘曦:“The environment inside the Austrian National Library is indeed different from other public libraries. The sculptures are exquisite, the books are thick and neat, but the lack of readers can read them in person. The overall ticket is still worth it. Because it does keep 95 percent of the original, original architecture and design”

Anonymous user:“If you have time, you can visit the Princess Sissi Museum. The exhibition hall displays the relics, objects and living facilities of Princess Sissi from her childhood to her assassination. With the help of the Chinese audio guide in each room, you can better understand the life of Princess Sissi at that time.”
