Sydney ooperiteater (Sydney Opera house) Anette Steinberg Sydney ooperiteater on 20. Sajandi üks kuulsamaid hooneid kogu maailmas, tegemist on modernistliku ekspressionistliku ehitisega. Asub Ausrtraalias, Sydney linnas Harbour’i silla läheduses. Sellest on saanud nii Sydney kui ka kogu Austraalia sümbol. 1950.ndatel võttis Sydney linnavalitsus vastu otsuse, et on vaja uut ooperimaja ja korraldas konkursi, mille võitis Taani arhitekt Jørn Utzon, ehitust alustati 1959. aastal. Tegemist oli äärmiselt keeruka kontruktsiooniga ning seega väga raskesti teostatav, pidi välja mõtlema uusi arhitektuurilisi lahendusi ning ka detailide ja mõõtmete välja arvutamine võttis aega rohkem kui arvata osati. Lisaks eihitise keerukusele nõudis see ka suuri rahasummasid, algselt 7 miljoni Austraalia dollari asemel läks kogu hoone maksma 102 miljonit. Raha tõttu peeti maha tulised vaidlused linnavalitsuse ja arhitekti vahel, mispärast vii...

Sydney Opera House is the most famous Australian architectural icon. Sydney Opera House is widely regarded as one of the greatest architectural works of the 20th century. The Sydney Opera House became a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 28 June 2007. Designed by Danish architect Jørn Utzon.

Joseph Cahill launched a design competition on 13 September 1955 and recieved 233 entries. The criteria specified a large hall seating 3,000 and a small hall for 1,200 people, each to be designed f...

3 Aprill 2011 Hi Nipitiri! It's been such a long time that I haven't written to you ! Don't worry, it doesn't mean that I had forgotten you. I hope that You had a great time in Australia. I have never been in Australia, so I want to ask some question from you. I hope you don't mind and you will have a time to respond to the letter. I have heard that there is a weird and wonderful musical instrument called a didgeridoo. Did you saw it? How it looks? And how they play it? I'll like if you will talk to me about it. It seems a very interesting instrument. Australins have a strong sense of humour and I have read that they will tell anti-English jokes to the English, anti-lawyer jokes to the lawyers and anti- mother-in-law jokes to mothers-in-law. Is is true? Did Australians laugh about you? They are very easy-going by nature. They pu...
If you could visit three places anywhere in the world, where would you go and what would you do there? If I could visit three places in the world, I think I'd choose civilized places in Europe, America and Australia rather than exotic locations. I've been to abroad and I like travelling. Firstly I would like to go to America. If I had to choose, I'd probably go to San Francisco. There are a lot of sights: Golden Gate Bridge, the Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park, Alcatraz, City Hall, Chinatown, Museum of Modern Art and AT&T Park, where I could watch the baseball match of San Francisco Giants. Secondly I'd like to visit Australian city Sydney. I'd certainly go to the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Town Hall, Taronga Zoo and sunbathe on the beautiful beaches. My third and final choice is European city in Italy Venice. It's popular with its waterways. I'd like to travel along the Grand Canal b...

It's almost the same size as continental USA, being the sixth largest country in the world. It's also the oldest some of the rocks are more than 3,000 million years old.

Burj al-Arab Hotel - The tourist magnet of Dubai The Burj Al Arab : literally, Tower of the Arabs is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Construction Construction of Burj Al Arab began in 1994. In 1999 the tower that resembles the sail of a dhow, became the world's tallest hotel with the height of 321 m. The architect Tom Wright has said that the client wanted a building that would become an iconic or symbolic statement for Dubai. This is very similar to Sydney with its Opera House, or Paris with the Eiffel Tower. It had to be a building that would become synonymous with the name of the country.
