Vienna Things to Do
 Sort by: Most Recent | Best Rated | Author's Order

Schönbrunn: SCHONBRUNN
  • Tip Rating:
  • It's the Austro-Hungarian version of Versailles, and specially beautiful on the inside. Sometimes there are music concerts held in it.

    Belvedere: SCHLOSS BELVEDERE
  • Tip Rating:
  • This palace is now a museum with great works of art by artists like Van Gogh and the very Vienesse Gustav Klimt (nobody leaves Vienna without hearing about him). A good audio-tour makes anyone deeply appreciate the paintings.

    Belvedere: LOWER BELVEDERE
  • Tip Rating:
  • Linked to the Schloss Belvedere by a long garden, this building is part of the Belvedere complex, though much less sumptuous than the upper palace. Still, its interior is well worth visiting.
    I imagine the palace owes its name to the nice panoramic views it has over Vienna...

    Stephansdom: STEPHANSDOM or St. Stephan's...
  • Tip Rating:
  • STEPHANSDOM or St. Stephan's Cathedral
    Beautiful gothic cathedral, severely damaged during WW2, as can be seen on some pictures placed closed to its entrance. It's possible to go up its tower and have great views of the surroundings, but some people may find it hard to walk all the way up.

    Classical Music: MOZART'S FIGAROHAUS
  • Tip Rating:
  • One of the many houses of the composer in Vienna, where he spent several years and composed 'Le Nozze di Figaro'. It's now a museum, with several personal objects and some of his musical instruments on display.

    Classical Music: MUSIKVEREIN
  • Tip Rating:
  • Home of the Vienna Philharmonic, one of the very best orchestras in the world. There's nothing more viennese than attending a classical music concert, and this is simply the perfect place for it. But depending on the program, it could be hard to get a ticket.

    Oper / Staatsoper: STAATSOPER, the Vienna Opera...
  • Tip Rating:
  • STAATSOPER, the Vienna Opera House
    Another great temple for music lovers, where takes place the Vienna Opera Ball (I'm not sure if that's what it's called in English) during the city's traditional carnival.

  • Tip Rating:
  • Hollywood Boulevard`s European relative, a classical-music artists hall of fame, from the Opera House to St. Stephan`s cathedral, a tribute to many of my greatest idols: Mozart, Bach, Karajan...

     Particularmente na Austria a gente nao quer aprender outras linguas e a reaccao e estranha quando a gente esta adressada em ingles. Attitude muito racista, julgo.

     Great Loveletter to Vienna! Will go there again next month - and even if I am not a rich man like you ;-P I enjoy this city a lot as well - even more than overpriced Paris. Servus!
