The Opera House is one of Sydney's most spectacular and controversial buildings, one of the world's great performing arts centres, it challenges the Harbour Bridge as the city's most recognisable icons. The Opera House is acclaimed as the most outstanding building of the 20th century, and when you cruise past its huge billowing sails hovering above the water, you will surely agree.
