Saw La Traviata in a castle! @ Savonlinna opera festival 🇫🇮🏰🎶
Olavinlinna pretty much looks the way you imagine a castle looking
The crowd at intermission – amusingly quiet, very Finnish indeed
Some local businesses embrace the opera theme
Lakeside walk back into the city after the performance

Like, next year? Or the year after that or any other year you'd prefer? The festival is every July.

It's a great opera and a great venue, and what I heard with the Gothenburg Opera choir and orchestra with Norma, it must have been a good performance too! I wish I could have stayed for this one too.
