The following text is for questions 1 to 4.

The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre in Sydney, Australia, identified as one of the 20th century's most distinctive buildings.

Designed by Danish architect Jorn Utzon, the building was formally opened on 20 October 1973 after a gestation beginning with Utzon's 1957 selection as a winner of an international design competition. The government of New South Wales, led by the premier, Joseph Cahill, authorised work to begin in 1958 with Utzon directing construction. The government's decision to build Utzon's design is often overshadowed by circumstances that followed, including cost and scheduling over runs as well as the 
architect's ultimate resignation.

The building and its surrounds occupy the whole of Bennelong Point in Sydney Harbour, between Sydney Cove and Farm Cove, adjacent to the Sydney Central business district and the Royal Botanic Gardens and close by the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Though its name suggests a single venue, the building comprises multiple performance venues which together are among the busiest performing arts centres-hosting well over 1,500 performances annually, attended by more than 1,2 million people. Performances are presented by numerous performing artists, including four resident companies: Opera Australia, The Australian Ballet, The Sydney Theatre Company and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. As one ofthe most popularvisitorattractions in Australia, more than eight million people visit the site each year and approximately 350,000 visitors take a guided tour ofthe building each year.The building is managed by the Sydney Opera House Trust, an agency of the New South Wales State Government.

On 28 June 2007, the Sydney Opera House became a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
