"My name is Csaba Tamas. I'm a travel guide and I work for Yellow Zebra, and on behalf of the Expert Village, we're having this tour around the city of Budapest today in Hungary. The Opera House, the State Opera House, is on the Andrassy Avenue between the Daek Square, between the Octagon, really close to the Heroes' Square. This main avenue contains a lot and this is one of the biggest buildings you can find around this area built in 1870s from Austrian money, Hungarian materials and a really good technique. In the 1870s this was one of the most modern buildings, most modern opera houses, learning a lot from accidents before because earlier, the Vienna Opera House was going down so they had to make this one really safe. Just next to the stop of the Opera stop, of the yellow underground, and just a corner away from the Yellow Zebra office there you'll find more information about tourism, more maps and more ideas from the friendly staff in the office."
