"Vienna Waits for You" a Vienna Travel Page by BorneoGrrl

My first trip to Vienna was in 2001, and left just a day after Sep 11. It was also my first trip to Europe and I was completely amazed by it. I did not speak a single Austrian word and was left to my own devices as I explored this beautiful city. Vienna is not difficult to experience, just carry a map and some Euros. People ask me what's in Vienna besides museums and parks. I can't simply answer in a sentence or a paragraph, you have to experience it yourself

Some good sites for more info on Vienna :-

Johanses Strauss in Staadpark

Music, food & wine

I'll admit, the first time I arrived here, I did not like the food but after a while I discovered places & found that Austria has some of the memorable dishes I've come across. The coffee and wine is without a doubt are up there in my list of the best, and the pastries are to die for.

Vienna is famous for the Waltz and when you around the city, you will find their images, from memorabilia to monuments, dedicated to them. I've been to Vienna countless times but have never finished exploring the city.
