Vienna

The grandiose capital of the Austrian Republic, Vienna offers many different sightseeing and cultural attractions. Once the showpiece for the Habsburg Dynasty, monumental buildings line the city centre, world-class museums showcase countless treasures, and renowned orchestras and choirs perform in lavish concert halls. One of the city¿s oldest buildings is the unique St. Stephan¿s Cathedral, which features a variety of different architectural styles because of its long construction time. A must for tourists is the Schloss Schönbrunn, the former residence of the Habsburgs, which features beautiful parks, a palm house, butterfly house and zoo.
