Photographer’s Note
I just want to share some famous places of my city :)
The opera house of Liège was built in 1818, situated on the location of an old Dominican monastery. It was built with the material of two churches, that were broken down during the French Revolution. It's built in the Italian style. It was inaugurated on the 4th of November 1820.
The bronze statue is the composer André Ernest Modeste Grétry born in Liège in 1741.

A great architectural shot, Jacques, with a very informative note. The top left corner is a little distracting , but the rest of the colours are great. Thank you for sharing it.
