About This File
No expense was spared to make "Teatro Amazonas" the grandest opera house in the world. Everything was brought from Europe: wrought iron staircases from England, crystal chandeliers from France, classical busts and marble from Italy. The wood is Brazilian, but it was sent to Europe to be polished and carved. A golden cupola inlaid with 36,000 ceramic tiles imported from Europe crowns the building. The opera house opened with a gala performance on New Year's Eve 1896, the best entertainers from Europe and North America were brought in .
