Vienna Essentials

Vienna’s imperial legacy is preserved in the Hofburg and Belvedere palaces, and the Baroque gardens of Schönbrunn. Cultural landmarks include the Neo-Renaissance State Opera, the Museum of Art History, and the Albertina. Architectural highlights range from the Baroque St. Charles's Church and National Library to the Greek Revival Parliament. The city’s unique character is defined by the Spanish Riding School’s classical dressage, the historic Prater amusement park, and the traditional coffee house culture of Café Central.
