Rolex - The Palais Garnier (18+) Part 2
DoWnTHeRaBbItHoLE

The Palais Garnier is a mystery wrapped up in an enigma all of its own... Image
1. ‘The Palais Garnier has been called "probably the most famous opera house in the world, a symbol of Paris like Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre, or the Sacré Coeur Basilica". This is at least partly due to its use as the setting for Gaston Leroux's 1910 novel The Phantom of the Opera and, especially, the novel's subsequent adaptations in films and the popular 1986 musical.’
2. ‘For the very first time in the Opera history, guests will have the occasion to spend the night at the Palais Garnier, the famous theatre house that inspired the legendary ‘Phantom of the Opera’. ’
