Vienna and its never-ending history

by Fam.Rauca - last update: Nov 19, 2007

Vienna is a city of the past, present and future

Vienna, a beautiful city in Europe

Vienna is, for many visitors and tourists, a very important city.
Visiting Vienna is a pleasure, but living here is a real privilege.
The city has 1,600,000 inhabitants, on a surface of 415 sq km.
The official language in Vienna,
just like in the unmitigated Austria, is German.
Every time when I go to the city, I am exactly as enthusiastic and curious,
as 18 years ago, when we came here.
Here you can go for a walk in the middle of the night
and be as fearless as if you would take a walk in the middle of the day.
Vienna is: history and music, poem and nature, modernism and tradition, silence and civilization

 Suntem indragostiti de Viena, deci sigur o vom mai vizita. Poate ...ne vom si intalni undeva...

 You live in one of the most elegant and dignified cities of all Europe. It has such history and fame of the past to present, and operas all over town. We hope to visit again some time, even after 4 visits of the past.

 Mariahilfer Street is a good place for a middle-class tourist, like Oxford Street in London or Yonge Street in Toronto. But the real elegant shopping street in Vienna is Kärntner Street, between Stephanplatz and Karlsplatz.
