Stephansdom: STEPHANSDOM
  • Tip Rating:
  • STEPHANSDOM is a fine example of European gothic. One of it’s towers is 137 meters high, try to climb it... And notice the unique roof covered with tiles! I look quite amazing between other old and some very modern buldings.

    Karlskirche & Karlsplatz: KARLSKIRCHIE
  • Tip Rating:
  • KARLSKIRCHIE is one of the best samples of the Baroque architecture in Vienna. This church was constructed in first half of XVIIIth century. In front of the church you can see a sculpture by Henry More - that's the one I'm sitting on with my friend from primary school. Well, this picture was taken back in 1992.

    Schönbrunn: SCHÖNBRUNN
  • Tip Rating:
  • SCHÖNBRUNN is a huge baroque palace built in the 17th/18th century. Here is where the Empress Maria Theresa lived with her 16 children and her husband Emperor Francis I. This Palace used to be the Habsburgs’ summer residence... well, quite a big summer house I would say ;-)

    Riesenrad & Prater: PRATER
  • Tip Rating:
  • PRATER used to be one of the greatest amusement parks in Europe. Although it seems that its best times are gone it's still lots of fun. Be smart enough going there and know your limits... I got so crazy there that I didn’t know when to stop. And not sure if I was lucky but my friends and I got one more ride for free. Well, it seemed to last forever and I was calling any human being to save my life... I survived!!!
