Linz - European Capital of Culture 2009 !

by y2ketan2007 - last update: Jan 1, 2009

A Beautiful Town

Niti in Linz
Linz is a gem of a town about 190 KM from Vienna.It is the third most imporatnt town in Austria and is located in Upper Austria.It is well connected by rail and road to the major cities in Austria.The river Danube flows through the city and offers dramatic views of this historic city.
Linz has been selected as the cultural capital of Europe for the year 2009.
Since relatively very few tourists visit this city it is quiet, peaceful and less commercial as compared to Vienna.
This tiny gem is a must see for anyone who likes to visit a small,lively and beautiful European city.

The outskirts of Linz are beautiful.Pretty cottages and fields everywhere.

 a long time no hi! hope all is well with you! Seeing by your home page you are still travelling to interesting places! Think Linz will be a good side trip for a winter visit to Vienna next.
