Madrid | Plaza de Oriente and Teatro Real

WI_e4007.jpg

View in SE direction. This opera house - built in the place of an older one - opened its doors in 1850. It looks back to a very changeful history, with alternating periods of deterioration and prosperity. The statue in the foreground represents Felipe IV.
