Vienna States Opera

Standing room only opera. We bought standing room tickets (Euro 3.50) for "Der Fliegende Hollander" (i.e. The Flying Dutchman). Yes it was cheap for an opera - yeah, you got to stand throughout the non-stop 2 hr show. There are railings for you to lean on and on the railings are small screens for translation. If you have to go to the toilet, you can tie your scarf/handkerchief or any piece of clothing on the railing to reserve your place.
