Vienna
Palaces, Churches & Galleries
Palaces, churches and art spaces such as the Hofburg, Schloss Schönbrunn, Schloss
Belvedere, Stephansdom, the MuseumsQuartier and Albertina make it literally impossible
to turn a corner in Austria's capital without bumping into an architectural or artistic mas-
terpiece.
Opera & Mozart
Listen to the music of Mozart at palatial venues across town, visit Mozart's former home,
embrace decadence and operatic greats at the Staatsoper or head to the Klangforum where
the up-and-coming composers perform.
Coffee Houses & Heurigen
Viennese coffee houses are legendary: sip, read, pause in palatial surrounds like Café
Gloriette or at hip modern renditions such as Café Drechsler. Grab a cocktail in Secession-
ist architect Adolf Loos' miniscule bar or visit a
Heuriger
(wine tavern).
