Places to visit in Vienna

Whatever the reason for your visit, Vienna won't disappoint. Looking for a new wardrobe? The Mariahilferstraβe is home to all major fashion brands, small boutiques with an Austrian character and homely cafés for a typical Austrian lunch or a nice cup of coffee and warm apple strudel. Once you’re all shopped out and ready for some cultural immersion, lose yourself in the world of Sissi and visit one of the palaces this Austrian Empress occupied. Schloss Schönbrunn was Sissi’s summer palace, where you can take a peek into various rooms. The incredible gardens here are the cherry on the cake. Can’t get enough of Sissi? Then visit the Sissi museum, where you’ll even get to see some of her original ball gowns!

Discover Vienna

If you’re thinking of a romantic Christmas break in December, visit the enchanting Christmas markets and enjoy a steaming cup of glühwein with your loved one! It should come as no surprise that Vienna is synonymous with ‘the city of music’. Not only do you get to thoroughly enjoy its various museums and performances yourself, but classical music runs through the very veins of the city. As you criss-cross the city, you’ll come across paving stones in the shape of a star in honour of the many composers Austria has produced.
