    Karlskirche & Karlsplatz: Karlsplatz Cafe
  • Tip Rating:
  • Actually it isn't that off the beaten tracks >:) just mine ... hehe Karlsplatz Cafe is a centre of crossroads of the underground and trams. The square got its recent look in 1977-78 when Sven Ingvar Andersson presented its view how the square should look like :). The central part of the whole square except the Karlskirche is an old building of public transport station created by Otto Wagner. The building is divided on two parts and one is underground stop and the other one is cafe (during the summer) and small gallery.

  • Tip Rating:
  • If you are in mood for shopping, avoid the main streets like Graben and turn to some others in the center. You will find tons of interesting shops smaller or bigger without bunches of tourists ...

    parks & gardens: Park near the Rathaus >:)
  • Tip Rating:
  • When you are heading to the Rathaus it is on the way and if weather is fine it really will help your body to recover for a next walking. There is a little fountain and benches where you can observe the ordinary life such as in other place. Children playing, moms talking and pigeons searching for the little seeds...

     re "Watch out..." These shelters were build to protect the restaurators working on the Quadrigas. Although they might look scary, they are perfectly safe. Nobody lives or changes clothes in there :-)

     How funny to find Rosenberger listed! We always rely on this place when we arrive in Vienna; simple comfort food.

     Very nice page about Vienna. I love your pics! I have to admit that I've never seen the Peterskirche before, though I#ve been to Vienna a thousand times!!! :( I have to visit it the next time...
