Opéra-Comique (Salle Favart)

In the story · Night at the opera

The opera outing where Driss cannot stop laughing at a tenor dressed as a singing tree was shot in this gilded 1898 house, not at the Palais Garnier. The façade with its loggia and caryatids faces a small square that is easy to miss between the Grands Boulevards and the Bourse.

Where to stand for the photo

Shoot from the south side of Place Boieldieu and centre the three arches of the first-floor loggia, letting the lit windows glow at dusk.
