<body background="C:\My Documents\My Pictures\Background\sandston.gif "> Once the leading city in Central Europe, today’s Vienna is a modern city robed in 18th-century charm and 19th-century grandeur. The Old World ambience of the city is determined as much by attitude as architecture: The Viennese invented cafe society, and they continue to perfect the art of sophisticated relaxation. Nowhere else in Europe are you so aware of a sense of warmth and friendly comfort. This feeling is so prized by the Viennese that they refer to it by name—gemutlichkeit (literally, coziness). To get the true sense of the word, spend some time in the cafes, where you’ll see the residents lingering over newspapers, chatting with friends and relaxing over a whipped-cream confection and a rich cup of coffee. <BR> If you don't have much time in town, or want an expert to show you around, taking a tour is not a bad idea. Practically all tour companies have English-speaking guides, and speakers of French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese and another dozen or so languages are also catered to. |
