Vienna

Lying on the Danube River at the east of the country, Austria’s capital has been shaped by its long history and famous residents. From the many celebrated artists and composers who have links there, to the imperial residences and baroque palaces of Empires past, Vienna is certainly grand to look at. Those visiting for a short break should also take time to sample the city’s cosy wine taverns and old coffee houses to truly experience the unique Viennese charm.
