Belvedere Palace is a stunning example of Baroque architecture located in Vienna's Landstrasse district. It consists of two grand palaces separated by a beautiful French-style garden. Originally built as a summer residence for Prince Eugene of Savoy in the 18th century, it now houses an impressive art collection spanning from the Middle Ages to contemporary works, including a notable collection of Klimt paintings.
Wow! Loved this extraordinary attraction and gardens. The architecture is amazing. My son and I really enjoyed the walk through and landscapes. The stone carvings / statues are beautifully placed. We did not visit inside the attraction as we will go another day.

Went to see Gustav Klimt on exhibition and it was a wonderful experience to see his work alongside Monet, Van Gogh and Egon Schiele. The palace is easy to navigate and the exhibition was over 3 floors. I visited late 5pm before closing and it was not crowded. I got to see all the works up close and truly appreciate the details. Staff are very vigilant and protect the work from people standing too close, its also important to check sinage as its not permitted to take photos of all the work. I had a wonderful time exploring the grounds before sunset. Found bamboo in the botanical gardens. It was not so lush as we are at the end of autumn, but it is a marvellous palace nevertheless. There is a cafe with very attentive and kind staff, great coffee. We also were very lucky the xmas markets were on at the time. Some beautiful stalls with great artisanal items!

It was nice to visit this palace. In winter time it's not so lovely because of the gardens. There was a little Christmas Bazar where you can enjoy some wine and sweets. There was huge donuts and some traditional foods.

Belvedere Palace was built between 1714 and 1723 as the summer residence for Prince Eugene of Savoy.After his death,it was acquired by Maria Theresa and transformed into one of the world's first public museums.It has since been used for various purposes,including as a residence for the heir to the throne and most famously,as the location where the Austrian State Treaty was signed in 1955, officially declaring Austria's freedom. Additionally,it houses a significant collection of art,including the world's largest collection of works by Gustav Klimt, with his famous paintings "The Kiss",Monet and Vincent van Gogh. It was a very enjoyable visit that traveled me in time!!
Konstantinos A — Google review
The Belvedere is a wonderful choice for a stroll and for experiencing beauty. The park is very pleasant and inspires a positive outlook, and the museum itself is incredibly aesthetically pleasing. You can see wonderful paintings not only by Klimt but also by other artists, as well as sculptures. There are absolutely unique works of art, portraits, and still lifes that are every bit as good as the famous canvases. The Klimt hall is wonderful; I really enjoyed his landscapes! A wonderful place!
Aida B — Google review
Amazing! The paintings and organisation of the museum is impressive, the collection of Gustav klimit is iconic. If you’re there to discover the palace as a historical place i don’t recommend since there is no rooms displayed. If you’re an art fanatic i recommend 3 hours.
Haya A — Google review
Visiting Belvedere Palace in Vienna is a feast for the eyes, particularly if you appreciate grand architecture and historic structures. The palace itself is stunning, with intricate interiors and elegant layouts that make wandering through its halls a visual delight. Even with parts of the building under restoration, the charm and grandeur of the palace remain impressive. The exhibition, however, is less remarkable. While it has its moments, it doesn’t quite match the awe-inspiring atmosphere created by the palace and its architecture. Art lovers may enjoy it, but for those primarily seeking a “wow” factor, it may feel underwhelming. A practical note: the queues can be long, especially on weekends. Even if you buy tickets online, you may have to wait for a later slot; when we arrived, our online tickets only allowed entry three hours later. Planning ahead and booking well in advance is highly recommended. The gardens are fantastic and free to explore. Locals often jog, run, or just relax there, and it's lovely to see artists drawing or people chilling. Overall, the views and grounds make it worth avisit! Overall, Belvedere Palace is worth visiting for its architecture and historical appeal, but don’t set your expectations too high for the exhibitions.
Kelvin T — Google review
I visited the Belvedere to experience the art of Gustav Klimt and to take in the stunning architecture and perfectly maintained gardens. The museum spans three floors, each offering something remarkable, from the magnificent Marble Hall, where the Austrian State Treaty was signed, to galleries filled with masterpieces from different eras. The highlight, of course, is Klimt’s The Kiss and Judith, along with several of his early works that show his artistic evolution. The atmosphere is both grand and intimate, you feel the history, the art, and the spirit of Vienna all in one place. Book your tickets in advance and stick to your time slot, as it can get busy. Give yourself time to explore the grounds, they’re as inspiring as the collection inside. A must-visit in Vienna. Highly recommended.

The Hofburg Imperial Palace, located in the heart of Vienna, is a grand complex that served as the residence and seat of power for the Habsburgs. This historic site, dating back to the 13th century, stands as a testament to the imperial history of the Danube monarchy. Today, it houses various institutions including the Austrian Federal President's office, museums such as the Sisi Museum and Court Silver Collection, and serves as an international conference center.
Impressive imperial palace complex in the heart of Vienna. Rich history, grand architecture, and well-curated museums make it a must-visit. Allow enough time to explore the Sisi Museum and the Imperial Apartments.
Charles Z — Google review
This is an enormous Palace complex. It houses several museums including the Sisi and Albertina, also the Spanish riding school arena and a church. You need to do some homework if you are interested in some of the above. Otherwise strolling around and taking in all the different centuries of architecture is very pleasing.
Marie G — Google review
Hofburg Palace, Vienna In the centre of Vienna stands this majestic palace complex which houses two museums including the famous Sisi museum dedicated to Empress Elisabeth. Built in the 13th century it was the winter residence as well as the seat of the government of the imperial family. The architecture is great and a big tourist attraction. In the front are some ruins and the area is full of tourists all through the day. Horse carts with well attired charioteers are there for the tourists to enjoy royal carriages. Being in the historic old town the place is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Beautiful architecture and very well maintained palace. Nearly 600 years old approx. Has big ground in front with a statue in front. You may also experience vintage car tour or horse cart ride.

Beautiful complex! The gardens are open to the public and certain buildings allow visitors! We only visited the State Hall which was gorgeous and gave a brief, modern history of Austria!
Olivia H — Google review
The Austrians certainly know how to do a building and the Hapsburgs really got it right. Just walking around the grounds can still the visitor to quite awe. There are a number of places with the area to visit and requires a ticket but it’s free to walk through the gardens and around the Palace buildings.

Rich in history and artifacts. I went early morning and there wasn't a lot of people. Definitely recommend visiting the museum. All and all, it's a must see if you are planning a trip to vienna.

Opera house

The Vienna State Opera House, also known as Wiener Staatsoper, is a world-renowned opera house that has been hosting major productions and guided tours. It is one of the largest and most magnificent theaters globally, with a rich history dating back to 1625. The current grand Opera House was constructed in 1869 and features a French Early Renaissance style.
if you're a fan of music, or even just beautiful buildings, the tour of the vienna state opera is a must-do. i wasn't sure what to expect, but it was really fascinating. ​it's a guided tour, so you go with a group and a guide tells you all the stories. they take you through the grand staircases and these incredibly ornate rooms like the tea salon and the marble hall. everything is so elegant and detailed, and it's wild to think that parts of the building had to be rebuilt after being bombed in world war ii. you see the original parts and the restored parts side by side, and it's a cool mix of history. ​the highlight for me was seeing the auditorium and the stage from different angles. you get to stand in the royal box and look out, and it makes you feel like you're royalty for a second. ​the tour is about 40 minutes long, and you get so many interesting facts and stories. they tell you about the famous composers and conductors who worked there. it's a really great way to appreciate the opera house even if you don't have time to see a full performance. it's a good idea to check the schedule online and book your tour in advance because they're really popular
KK — Google review
It was our first opera. It was amazing. The story was interesting and very easy to follow the subtitles on the little screen in front of each seat. The cast and Orchestra were extremely talented. The opera house is magnificently beautiful. It's well worth a visit.
Nimma S — Google review
First time in this quintessential building, went to see Mozart’s Cosi Fan Tutte on a Thursday night. The building design is such that, even high up on “oxygen level”, one has a great view of the stage and singers. However, the design also takes the breath away from those afraid of heights:) Individual tablets at the seats give you subtitles. They do make you check in your coats and the bar lines at intermission can get very long, so plan accordingly. Also, prices are high, not unexpectedly. Unique building and design though, quality performances, not to be missed.
Adi G — Google review
The Vienna State Opera House is one of the most stunning buildings I have ever seen. I only had the chance to admire it from the outside, but its beauty is absolutely breathtaking. The grand façade, elegant arches, and detailed sculptures reflect Vienna’s rich artistic and cultural heritage. Even without going inside, you can feel the history and importance of this place, where some of the world’s greatest operas have been performed. The building shines beautifully, especially at night when it’s illuminated, creating a magical atmosphere. I hope to return one day to experience a performance inside this magnificent opera house.
Salvatore P — Google review
Very disappointing experience at the Vienna Opera House First of all, I was scammed by ticket sellers outside the building. They were wearing official-looking vests with lanyards, so I thought they were staff. I was in a rush and bought a ticket from them for €50, only to find out later that the actual price of my corner seat was only €15. The seat had a terrible view and I could barely see anything. But the performance was still good. The experience inside was just as bad. During the second intermission, I missed the re-entry and was denied entry until the session ended, which meant I had to stand outside for 1.5 hours. There were no announcements or signs in English to inform foreigners that the bell ringing meant “5 minutes until doors close.” About eight of us were left stuck outside even though we had paid for our tickets. When I spoke to the management, they casually mentioned that this was not the first time it happened but offered no solution. Their excuse was that “the bell is an old tradition and everyone should know.” Sorry, but I’m a foreigner, and it’s 2025 — clear communication should be basic hospitality. As for the scammers outside, the management said that the area outside isn’t their property, so they’re “not responsible,” even though these sellers are using “Opera House” tickets to overcharge tourists. This felt extremely unprofessional. Overall, this was a very disappointing and frustrating experience. I expected much better from such a famous cultural institution.
Hanli B — Google review
I highly recommend to buy tickets in advance. However, if the will to listen to the opera arrives suddenly, there is always possibility to buy tickets for standing places. Be ready to pay 13-18 euros for it. I watched Faust here, and the performance was a great mix of classic and modernity. That's why it got 3 stars instead of one. However, the organization of the reception was terrible. I spent 10 minutes to find my level, and another 10 trying to deposit my coat. As a result I was late, and the door to the opera hall was closed and the entrance was forbidden. The staff, really rude and strict, offered to watch the opera in the small room with the on line translation.. until second part. It took 2 hours. And even after that.. no smile, no welcoming.. like a military camp.

It was truly a dream come true to experience an opera. I adore European culture and its rich history. The venue felt utterly magical, and being there made me feel incredibly special.
Harsha J — Google review
If you’re in Vienna, you definitely have to visit the State Opera House! I’ve been to opera houses in the U.S., but most of them are relatively new compared to this one. The level of detail here is incredible – every corner feels like a work of art, from the ornate ceilings to the grand staircases. The performance was equally stunning. The orchestra and opera singers were on another level – so powerful and moving that even though I’m not usually into classical music, I loved every minute of it. This was truly an unforgettable experience and one of those bucket-list items you absolutely have to check off when visiting Vienna.

The Danube Tower, also known as the Donauturm, is an iconic landmark in Vienna that opened in 1964. As the tallest structure in Austria at 252 meters, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the Danube River from its observation deck at 150 meters. The tower is part of the Danube Park, which was transformed from a former rubbish dump into a park with various attractions and facilities for both children and adults.
Super cool 360° view of the city daytime but especially at night. Lovely revolving Café at the top, that allows you to enjoy a pretty decent and afordable coffee and strudel while amazing views of the city are unfolding in front of you. Highly recommend the experience!!
Alexandra A — Google review
We visited the Danube Tower on Saturday, August 2, 2025, around 8:30 PM on a stormy evening and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. It was cloudy and dramatic at first, then later, it poured. We took a peaceful walk through Donaupark on the way in, beautifully green, calm, and spacious. Then came the real highlight: the view from the top of the tower. As the storm rolled in, we watched the clouds and lights shift across the city skyline. One local even told us he had never seen such heavy rain in Vienna before, which made the moment feel surreal and almost cinematic. The kids absolutely loved the slide and went on it twice. I worked up the courage to try it too, after a little fear moment that lasted a good 3 to 5 minutes 😅. The staff member at the slide was incredibly kind and patient with both the kids and with me. We didn’t dine at the restaurant as the storm got stronger, we felt it was safer to head back to the hotel. While the person checking tickets could have been a bit more welcoming, everything else was smooth and enjoyable. The only downside was the toilets. They were not clean and had a strong unpleasant smell definitely an area that needs more attention. This spot is still perfect for families, a beautiful mix of nature and city views all in one place. Definitely a must visit when you’re in Vienna.

My visit to the Danube Tower (Donauturm) in Vienna was truly amazing and unforgettable! The tower offers a complete experience, combining breathtaking views of the city with fun and a touch of adrenaline. From the top, the view is absolutely incredible — you can see the whole city of Vienna, the Danube River, Donauinsel, and even the surrounding areas. On clear days, the visibility is impressive, and during sunset the light creates a magical atmosphere. The observation deck is well designed, safe, and spacious, perfect for taking memorable photos. I also really enjoyed the slide experience, which adds a perfect dose of excitement and fun! 🎢 It’s a unique activity — combining the thrill of height with spectacular views, all in a safe and well-managed environment. The rotating restaurant is another highlight — you can enjoy a meal while the entire city slowly turns beneath you. The staff were friendly, organized, and always ready to help. The tower is easy to reach by public transport, and the surrounding park area is beautiful for a relaxing walk. I highly recommend visiting the Danube Tower — it’s one of those places you simply must see in Vienna! A perfect mix of views, excitement, and unforgettable memories.

My genuine opinion after visiting this on 09-10-2025. We have bought a tickets of 19,90€ per person (2 persons) to reach the top floor for a great view. As we expected we have entered into the lift and seen that the lift is very fastly taking us to the top. After reaching top, we came out and need to hike three floors(steps) approx for experiencing sliding and found that 6€ fare for sliding for just 10 seconds. After sliding, we again need to hike the three floors (steps) and then we thought to go to the top view. After we walked to 4th floor and there we saw a rotating restaurant with a bargate. They asked us about having any reservation or not, if not, then they said to go to another rotating restaurant which is in the downfloor and to buy a coffee there to feel the view. We went down there we bought two bowl of icecream. We experienced the rotating restaurant view(it was good). And after that there is nothing like view point or top view(open view). Total - 39,80€€ + 6€ slide + rotating restaurant - 5.20€. After seeing this, my genuine opinion is 'One time watchable'. Pros Rotating restaurant Sliding option Cons Not reasonable price Additional price for sliding. We need to buy something in the rotating restaurant. For taking photo print the price is 9€ which not at all reasonable I felt. Very commercial (I felt). For a top view we paid full price of 19,90€ per person. After going to top we came to know we should have a reservation in the restaurant for top view. If we do not have reservation we need to go down and get a coffee atleast to get a rotating view(both are rotating restaurant one is located down, and other is in the top floor.)

⭐️ Unforgettable experience at Donauturm! 🌆✨ I had dinner at the Donauturm restaurant in Vienna, and it honestly took my breath away. The food was absolutely delicious 😋, the staff super friendly, and the view… just wow! 😍 What surprised me most was realizing that the restaurant actually rotates 360° while you eat — I looked outside and suddenly the whole skyline had changed! 🏙️ It’s such a magical feeling to watch the city slowly turn beneath you while enjoying great food and company. This place is pure atmosphere — cozy, elegant, and unforgettable. 💫 If you’re in Vienna, don’t miss it. One of those experiences that stays with you forever ❤️

Schönbrunn Palace is an 18th-century summer residence that offers tours of its opulent rococo ceremonial rooms and lavish gardens with a maze. The palace boasts beautiful Baroque and Neo-Classical architecture, reflecting Vienna's rich history as the town of Habsburgs and Maria Theresa. It is Vienna's most visited attraction, featuring 45 luxurious state rooms, ceremonial halls, and private apartments once inhabited by Empress Elisabeth and Emperor Franz Joseph.
Gorgeous place to visit- bring a coat if going in the winter or fall as it can get chilly. Recommend buying tickets ahead of time and just walk to the front of the palace to enter- audio guides can be procured upon entry. If you have kids- there is also a small zoo, and a playground in the garden maze area.

We had a wonderful day exploring Schönbrunn Palace and its beautiful gardens! The place is enormous, so expect to spend almost the entire day walking around, discovering its stunning architecture, elegant interiors, and rich history. There are plenty of benches outside where you can rest, have a picnic, or simply people-watch. The gardens are incredibly lovely and very well-maintained, and the entire area is so organized that you’ll enjoy exploring no matter which part you visit. There’s also a children’s museum, zoo, mazes, cafés, restaurants, and more! We especially enjoyed the short hike up to the Gloriette for a breathtaking view of the palace grounds. A definite must-see when in Vienna!

There was one feature where to see fully you had to go upstairs, otherwise everywhere you could roll.

It was my first visit to Schönbrunn Palace in 47 years, and its magnificent scenery was as wonderful as ever as a symbol of the Habsburg dynasty. The lavish decorations inside the palace and the splendor of the gardens are as magnificent as ever, demonstrating the majesty of a World Heritage Site that is worth revisiting. Walking around the vast gardens, I was reminded of its grandeur and splendor. The splendid decorations and paintings inside the palace are also worth seeing.

You need to explore all the places so a classic plus ticket is recommended for 75 euros, this will cover all the gardens, zoo, terrace, and the palace. This will be a long trip and you need to rest between them so I'd recommend to start your trip at 10 a.m. to finish it at 5 p.m. I strongly recommend to buy your tickets online becuase there was a very long line. I will leave you with the images to rate the experience 😊

The Palace is absolutely stunning! The architecture is magnificent, and the gardens surrounding the palace are beautifully designed and very spacious. Walking through the grounds, you can enjoy fountains, sculptures, and perfectly maintained flower beds. The area around the palace is full of charm and offers great spots for photos. Visiting Schönbrunn Palace is a truly unforgettable experience and a must-see when in Vienna.

St. Stephen's Cathedral is a medieval Roman Catholic place of worship in Vienna, Austria. It features an ornate spire, catacombs, and a treasury museum. Visitors can explore the cathedral to admire world-renowned works of art and church utensils for a fee. The catacombs house the remains of Austrian emperors and are accessible only to guided tour groups for an additional cost.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We visited St. Stephen’s Cathedral over the weekend, and it was such a beautiful experience. The architecture is stunning — Austria really knows how to blend modern and classic styles. You can feel the history, yet everything around feels fresh and vibrant. The cathedral is surrounded by modern buildings and high-end shops, creating a unique mix of culture and lifestyle. One thing I really appreciated is that entry to the cathedral is free, which is rare in Europe. You only pay if you want to go up to the tower for the panoramic city view — and the price is quite reasonable. Children under 10 enter for free, and kids under 18 get a 50% discount. Overall, everything in Austria feels very clean, safe, and well-organized. We really enjoyed our time here and definitely recommend visiting St. Stephen’s Cathedral if you’re in the city center.

St. Stephen’s Cathedral rises like a medieval stone heartbeat in the very center of Vienna. Its Gothic spire, ribbed vaults, and stained-glass windows aren’t just architectural flourishes; they are the city’s compass and heartbeat. Every street in Vienna seems to spiral outward from here, as if the entire city were built around prayer. Inside, the air feels thick with centuries of pious devotion. The flicker of candles against cold stone, the scent of wax and incense, the hush of travelers and locals alike; it all combines into a kind of living liturgy. The cathedral isn’t just a monument to faith; it’s a place where belief, art, and history intertwine. Every carving and arch seems to whisper the same message: beauty is one of the purest ways to praise God. On Saturday evenings, when the bells call the faithful for the 7:00 PM English Mass, a golden light fills the nave as the sun sets behind the stained glass. Tourists pause, locals kneel, and the choir’s echo mingles with the organ’s thunder. It’s a deeply human moment, both intimate and grand — a reminder that Vienna’s soul is not found only in its cafés and concert halls, but here, in this cathedral that has watched over the city for nearly 900 years. A must-visit not just to see, but to feel. St. Stephen’s doesn’t merely stand at the center of Vienna. It is Vienna’s heart.❤️ Christmas celebration in full swing outside of the cathedral.

This cathedral is absolutely stunning. The architecture, both inside and out, is breathtaking. Right beside it, an early Christmas market was happening with adorable stalls. The interior is a true work of art. At night, it transformed into what looked like a massive haunted castle, haha!
Harsha J — Google review
The cathedral is a magnificent piece of architecture and a sight to behold. My strong personal critique, however, is the commercialization of the space. Requiring payment for entry into the main sections creates a barrier that I feel is fundamentally opposed to Christian teachings. A church should be a place where anyone, regardless of their financial means, can enter to pray and connect with God.
Deepu J — Google review
I have to say that I was really excited to visit St. Stephen’s Cathedral. I had seen it in pictures, on Instagram, everywhere, and seeing it in person was such a beautiful, emotional moment. The cathedral is stunning from the inside out. We bought our tickets the same day; you cannot buy tickets online, so you need to go directly to the ticket area. If you want to go to the top of the cathedral, there are two options: • South Tower – You must climb around 300 steps. It’s very high and can be exhausting. • North Tower – This is the one we chose. It actually has a better view, including a 360° view, and you can take the elevator, which is definitely nicer. We also visited the dungeons, and that was fascinating. You see cadavers that have been there since the 1500s (or around that time). They give you a guided tour that explains how people were buried and the history of the underground cemetery. It’s very interesting, I won’t spoil too much, but I definitely recommend it. We didn’t do the full church tour because when we arrived, they were having Mass, and we didn’t want to wait. Plus, after going up the tower in the cold, we were already a bit tired. So just be prepared, going to the top can be draining, especially if you’re an introvert. We’re both introverts, and we were completely drained afterwards. But honestly, the cathedral itself is breathtaking. It’s hard to believe something so massive and detailed was built so long ago. I really can’t even explain how incredible it is, you just have to see it for yourself. One thing I liked is that everything is done on the same day, and you don’t have to worry about online bookings. You can explore one part of the cathedral and come back another day to do the rest, if you want. We didn’t, but it’s an option. We bought two tickets: • one for the underground cemetery tour • one for the North Tower (highly recommend this one!) I also recommend doing the official church tour because it gives you the full history, when it was built, who built it, and all the important details. I kind of regret not doing that. Overall, I highly recommend visiting St. Stephen’s Cathedral. I don’t have many pictures because I really wanted to take everything in with my own eyes and enjoy the moment. If you go, do the same,or have someone else take photos for you,because the experience goes by too fast. And you don’t want to miss it by staring at your phone.

St. Stephen’s Cathedral is a stunning Gothic masterpiece and a must-see in Vienna. I booked my ticket through GetYourGuide, which was convenient and easy. You need to claim the actual ticket at the Dom Museum Wien next to the cathedral before entry, so it’s best to go a few minutes early. The cathedral’s interior, towers, and views are breathtaking — rich in history and atmosphere. Worth the visit!

Prater is a historic public park in Vienna that has been open to the public since 1766. It features a long promenade, traditional amusement park rides, a planetarium, and a museum showcasing its rich history. The park also houses children's rides from the '20s and '30s that survived a fire in 1945. One of its most iconic attractions is the Prater Ferris Wheel, offering an unforgettable view of Vienna from above.
A Perfect Blend of Nature and Fun – A Park for Everyone! This park truly offers the best of both worlds. On one side, you’ll find a peaceful and charming green area with a pond full of ducks, perfect for a relaxing walk, biking, or even a picnic under the trees. It's an ideal spot to unwind, enjoy nature, or just let the kids run free while you sit back and take in the serene atmosphere. On the other side of the park is a huge amusement area that’s packed with games and attractions for all ages. From thrilling rides to fun games for kids, there's something here for everyone. We tried the giant Ferris wheel, which gave us amazing views — definitely a highlight! The ride cost €6 per person, and it was well worth it. Keep in mind that while entry to the general park is free, each amusement game or ride has its own separate fee. There’s also a fantastic section within the park filled with restaurants! you can visit day or night. It’s a great area to relax after a walk or a fun ride, and it's equally enjoyable for both adults and kids. All in all, this park is a must-visit. Whether you're looking for a calm afternoon in nature or an exciting day of fun, it has it all in one place!

We had lots of fun at Prater. Many fun and exciting rides. Amazing views, fun and lively atmosphere. I expected prices to be higher, but they weren’t. There’s no entry fee, you pay for your rides. In November 2025 most rides cost 5€ per person. The famous ferrys wheel cost around 15€ for adults and half price for children. Many attractions available in the evening (we visited 8-10pm) for adults and kids (9 y/old)

Nestled in the heart of Vienna, the Volksgarten is a stunning public park that beautifully marries history and leisure. Originally designed as a private garden for archdukes, it has welcomed visitors since 1825 and is now part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Historic Center of Vienna. The park features manicured landscapes adorned with temples, fountains, and vibrant rose gardens.
One of the most beautiful and peaceful parks in Vienna. Whichever time of the day, this is the perfect place to take a break and enjoy the so many roses growing here. Just take a look at these pictures.

An impressively lovely gardens right along the inner city of Vienna. Everything is precise, orderly and beautiful. There’s a section where rose bushes are donated by people and it makes for a colorful pop along the walking path.

I loved how precise everything was set up here, the grounds are very well attended to and cared for.

Schönbrunn Zoo, located in the garden of the Schönbrunn Palace, is a historic 18th-century zoo that offers a diverse collection of over 500 animal species. The zoo is known for its child-friendly programs and activities, including free children's tours on Sundays and special Christmas workshops and activities during the holiday season. As the oldest zoo in Europe, it boasts a rich history dating back to Empress Maria Theresa's nature-loving husband, Francis Stephen.
The Schönbrunn Zoo is one of the best zoos I’ve ever visited! It’s very well organized, clean, and easy to walk around. There’s a huge variety of animals, from giant pandas and polar bears to elephants and tigers. The enclosures are spacious and well maintained, and you can see that the animals are cared for. What makes it special is the atmosphere – it’s part of the Schönbrunn Palace grounds, so walking through the zoo feels like a mix of nature, history, and culture. There are plenty of places to rest, grab a snack, or enjoy a coffee while taking a break. Definitely a must-visit in Vienna – plan to spend at least half a day here to enjoy it fully!

Amazing! We loved it. I grew to hate zoos because animals are never well kept and just exploited. This is completely different! First, the variety of animals is incredible.

Points of Interest & Landmarks
The Viennese Giant Ferris Wheel, also known as Riesenrad, is a famous attraction located in the Wiener Prater. Originally opened to the public in 1766 by Habsburg Joseph II, this former royal hunting ground quickly became a popular entertainment hub for locals. The Ferris wheel was built in 1897 and rises to 65m, offering visitors stunning views of the city during its 20-minute rotation.
Very immersive and fun experience, if you buy card online you have fast access. You can also buy ViennaPass and also go through fast line. Sometimes you need to wait at the entrance, and the reason for that is that only around 10-12 people can enter at one time in one of the rooms on the wheel. It's not the highest experience you can have at the Prater, but it's very nice and calm ride. It lasts around 15-20 minutes. Only thing is bad that you can't sit inside, and you have to stand up the whole ride which can be challenging if you were walking and visiting the city on the same day. There is also a shop at the bottom where you can buy souvenirs.

We visited the Viennese Giant Ferris Wheel on our last night in Vienna, and it was an absolute treat. It’s about a 20-minute Uber ride from the city centre, but completely worth it, especially if you time it for sunset. Despite rush-hour traffic, we arrived just in time and it made the evening feel special. The check-in process was smooth, the cabins are comfortable and well-maintained, and the views over Vienna are simply breathtaking. The whole experience takes around 30 minutes, giving plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and atmosphere. We booked our tickets in advance, though it’s not strictly necessary unless you’re visiting on a weekend or during peak hours. A wonderful way to end a stay in this beautiful city.

Trying it once as the oldest ferriswheel was maybe okay. You can have a good view but its not that high so it wouldnt give you the whole city view. And its just one round that stops 1232332 times to empty and refill the wagons. In my opinion it doesnt worth it, the price is too much abd the waiting time is too long for just 1 round in a crowded cabin. In oktoberfest with 8 euro you get to enjoy at least 4 round in that giant ferriswheel. (Not sure if it was 4 or 5 round. We had to wait in the line for about 1 hour but at the end everyone was satisfied )

The Sigmund Freud Museum is a tribute to the life and work of the renowned father of psychoanalysis. Housed in an elegant building not far from Vienna's historic Hofburg district, this museum offers a glimpse into Freud's personal and professional life. Visitors can explore his former practice and private quarters, which served as the family home for nearly five decades.
Wonderfully leisurely perusal of all rooms, all displays. An illuminating visit. Just seeing some of the lukewarm, or negative reviews. Best to ignore. If you’re interested in psychoanalysis, if you’re interested in Freud, if you’re interested in the intellectual and cultural vitality of a bygone Vienna, you will find the museum as we did: fascinating.

Ok Museum if you were curious about what Freud had as wallpaper and his antique figurines. There are info plaque to read about Freuds work but not very comprehensive and sort of randomly put together with unfinished stories. I went in the fall and it eas very busy not sure there would be much room to read all the info in peak tourist season. Exhibits need to be recurated maybe start with a 10 min video giving an overview of his career and then focus on some of his work supporters and critiques and maybe some guest artist on the theme. After this vist I lost any interest in Freud and his work, you see how shelter a life he mostly lived his life in this building and I start to wonder did he really have the life experience to fully comprehend the mind.

Visitors can enjoy diverse exhibitions such as the impactful Dali - Freud showcase and thought-provoking modern tree exhibition.
Spent an hour. Marble and golden rooms were beautiful. Fortunately the orangerie had a temporary Impressionist collection that was impressive. The staples art collection is mostly religious and brief. Very small museum otherwise so visit quality is quite dependent on what the temporary exhibition is.

Lower Belvedere in Vienna is a charming spot that offers a lovely, more intimate experience compared to its grander counterpart, Upper Belvedere. The palace features beautifully preserved Baroque architecture, and the interiors are quite elegant. Highlights include the Marble Hall, the Golden Room, and the Hall of Grotesques, each with intricate designs and a rich history. The palace also hosts special exhibitions, adding a bit of variety to the visit. The surrounding gardens are peaceful and perfect for a stroll. While it may not have the extensive collection of its bigger sibling, it's definitely a worthwhile stop for anyone interested in Austrian art and Baroque architecture. Overall, a solid four-star experience!

Although it's smaller than the Upper Belvedere, my visit was incredibly rewarding and fulfilling. There was a special exhibition centered around the works of Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele, which exceeded all my expectations. Seeing famous works like Klimt's "Water Serpents I" and "Judith" up close was a truly moving experience. The exhibition also offered a deep dive into Egon Schiele's artistic world through his various drawings and paintings. What impressed me most was the feeling of these vibrant and revolutionary artworks breathing new life into a historic palace. There was a wonderful sense of the past being re-energized and revitalized, which I found truly fantastic. The compact size of the exhibition space is actually a plus, as it allows you to appreciate each piece deeply without feeling rushed. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in Viennese Modernism!!

Wunderschön! Breathtaking gardens and Upper/Lower Palaces. The interiors are primarily art galleries with some of the World's greatest works. Included are Monet, Pisaro, Renoir, Cezanne, etc. In the upper palace are modern art such as Gustav Klimt & many others. TIP: many visitors miss the Impressionists Gallery in the Stables building. At the very end of the gallery, behind a screen wall is a MARVELOUS short film on the primary donor.

Unfortunately, I was not impressed by my visit (review of the Lower Belvedere). First, the price is €18 (€16.50 when purchased on the website). It is unclear how this price is justified. This is a huge amount of money for two exhibitions. Secondly, the exhibition rooms (Impressionists) are very hot and stuffy - there is nothing to breathe. There is a cafe (which is also very hot, so I didn’t want to stay), a cloakroom, toilets, and a souvenir shop.

Café & Restaurant Motto am Fluss is a stylish and iconic venue located in a boat-like building with stunning canal views. The restaurant offers a delectable all-day menu featuring both local and global cuisine. Guests can enjoy a delightful brunch experience, complete with an array of delicious options such as All Day Breakfast Sandwich, soft-boiled eggs with breadsticks, sweet potatoes, avocado, pickled radishes, and homemade Nougatcreme.
We discovered Motto am Fluss while walking around looking for a place to eat, and it turned out to be our best experience in Vienna! From the service to the food to the overall atmosphere, everything was spot on. Even though the place was packed and we didn’t have a reservation, they still managed to give us a second-row seat with a great view. The table was super comfortable and spacious, which made the experience even better. Special thanks to Phelix, both waiter and chef, who was always smiling, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The only downside was the dessert, which didn’t match the quality of the rest of the meal. Still, highly recommended!

Great place, pretty classy. Get the All Day Big Boy Breakfast Sandwich. It was quite pricy at €16 but it was worth it. The best thing about this place is the amazing atmosphere when the sun is out. If you know you are coming on a sunny day, make a reservation to sit outside in the shade. You will experience the definition of atmosphere. Places like these will make us come back to Vienna.

Great food that tasted exquisitely and was presented immaculately. €165 for 2 people spent. Was a little too warm by the window but it is summer. Nice to have a steak that was cooked exactly as wanted. If we visit Vienna again we will surely eat here again. Recommended to reserve a table ahead of time.

Probably the best restaurant around! Service was incredible and the food was just divine From the minute we arrived they made us feel welcomed right through to when we finished our wonderful meal. And I must say the smashed burger I have’s was probably the best ever! Located right on the canal this place had the coolest vibe to match! A must go! Thank you to the whole team there!!

This place is recommended on various guides and by various people. We reserved a dinner for 6:30 PM and we arrived at the opening at 6. Was not a problem to get a table next to window as we asked for. The waiter was very good and helped to make some choices between the options we had for food. Also he recommended a good local white wine for our fish. What I appreciated ( and I recommend people traveling from other countries or continents to do - verify where you travel and what is the local food and people culture ) was the focus on client wellbeing . Example: food takes time to be served ( thanks good is cocked and not microwaved ) and the waiter asked us if we are ready for main dish or we want to wait a little and enjoy view and discussion. Regarding the food - is a real gastronomic restaurant , I enjoyed the fish and chips revisited and the gazpacho as starter. If you are not in rush, if you understand the restaurant is an experience and not a need to eat, if you accept the local “cold” people style then go here and enjoy the view of Danube Channel. One mention - they have bar, terrace and restaurant - my dinner was in the restaurant.

Amazing atmosphere and great view! If you want to spend an evening with good drinks, lively atmosphere, breeze from water, I recommend Motto. It is a bit pricey, so be prepared to give some cash. The location is a former cruise ship, and the vibe is accordingly great! I recommend reserving a place in advance

'' very good!'' I am having swimming classes at RUSH Swimming and I could not be happier with the lessons and the school. Sandra is very supportive and helps me booking and rescheduling my classes whenever needed. I have my lessons with coach Ana Krolo and she is the best coach ever. Her teaching technique is super effective. We quickly found my mistakes and Ana can immediately tell me what to do to correct it. She utilizes every minute of the lesson to give me best training possible. My goal at the beginning was to learn enough so that I can save myself but I am now not only can swim but I enjoy swimming very much. If you want to learn how to swim from a world class swimmer, Ana is the coach.

Vienna City Hall, also known as Rathaus, is a massive municipal building constructed with around 30 million bricks. It hosts various events such as balls and markets. The 19th-century neo-Gothic tower of the Rathaus stands at an impressive height of 103 meters, making it a prominent feature in Vienna's skyline. The building houses government offices, a city library, and over 1500 rooms.
Vienna City Hall (Rathaus) becomes pure magic during Christmas! The grand façade, already beautiful, is transformed with lights and decorations that make it feel like a winter fairy tale. The famous Rathausplatz Christmas Market adds to the charm, with dozens of stalls offering handcrafted gifts, mulled wine, and delicious treats. The ice skating rink and carousel create a cozy, festive atmosphere perfect for families and couples. Even if you’ve seen other Christmas markets, this one feels special with the stunning backdrop of the City Hall. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Vienna during the holidays!

There were plenty of food stalls offering a variety of delicious treats, along with charming craft shops showcasing unique handmade items. It truly created a magical and memorable experience, a perfect way to enjoy the holiday spirit.

Vienna City Hall, or the Wiener Rathaus, is a stunning Neo-Gothic building that serves as the seat of the local government. Its tall spire and detailed façade make it one of the most iconic landmarks in Vienna. When I visited, I only saw it from the outside, but it was during the winter season, and the square in front of the City Hall was transformed into an impressive ice skating rink. It wasn’t just any rink—it was large, beautifully set up, and full of lively energy. Definitely a great spot to visit, even if just to enjoy the festive atmosphere around this magnificent building!

This neoclassical building represents the city of Vienna in such an authentic way; it makes you realize you are in the city where classicism rules over modernism.

The Austrian National Library, also known as the Prunksaal, is a magnificent Baroque State Hall adorned with intricate ceiling frescoes. It is located in Vienna and houses the Habsburg Court Library, which was commissioned by Emperor Charles VI in 1716. The library's stunning architecture features marble, gold, and hardwood elements that create a grand atmosphere. Visitors can explore the extensive collection of over 12 million books while admiring the opulent interior.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve never seen a library as breathtaking as this one in my life. Walking through it felt like stepping into a world that truly celebrates knowledge, creativity, and curiosity. The way everything is organized — from the architecture to the placement of each book — shows how deeply people here value learning. Coming from a developing country, this visit touched me deeply. It made me realize how much we still need to invest in creating spaces that inspire people to read, study, and dream. Honestly, I only came because one of the kids wanted to visit, but once inside, it completely changed the way I see education and culture. If you ever find yourself in Austria, don’t miss this library in the city center. It’s not just a place to read — it’s a place that changes the way you think. We went on the weekend; it was lively but not overcrowded, and the ticket price was very reasonable. A truly unforgettable experience.

It is recommended to arrive at 9:30 in the morning when there are fewer people. The Austrian National Library, located within Wienna’s Hofburg Palace, was once the imperial library of the Habsburg dynasty. Its grand Baroque hall features soaring domes and gilded shelves, with a central statue of Emperor Charles VI symbolizing the empire’s reverence for knowledge and power. Today, it stands as one of Europe’s most magnificent libraries. The antique globes in the Austrian National Library are mostly made of paper, built on wooden or metal spheres covered with printed paper gores, then colored and varnished. This technique allowed fine details and inscriptions, making it popular in the 17th–18th centuries. The library’s Globe Museum holds one of the world’s most complete paper globe collections. The ticket is 11 euros and it is more exquisite than the library in Budapest.

Absolutely stunning. The architecture is breathtaking — the painted ceilings, the ornate details, and the rows of rare ancient books make the whole place feel almost unreal. Walking inside felt like stepping into an old film set or a royal study frozen in time. It’s not a huge space, but every corner is worth taking in slowly. If you appreciate history, design, or just beautiful interiors, this library is a must-see. One of those places that stays with you long after you leave.

This library is absolutely gorgeous. As you walking in you can just see the history of this place come to life. The place is huge and you can spend a bit of time here reading through ancient and modern history article and artifacts. The ceiling art is priceless and gives most of the character to the library. I would highly recommend visiting this place. It is unique in nature and you won’t find many places like this.

One of the most visually stunning rooms I’ve ever walked into. The baroque hall, with its frescoed ceiling, marble statues, and centuries-old tomes, feels like stepping straight into a fantasy film set. Every corner glows in warm gold light. Historically, this was the Habsburg court library, and it still carries that imperial grandeur. Tip: Go mid-morning; it’s quieter and you can take your time admiring the frescoes without crowds.

I was there on a weekday right when it opened. There were no more than 20 people, so it was easy to buy a ticket, easy to see everything and take photos. Audio guide - definitely a must. Overall impression - wow, even though it's just one large hall, you can spend 1-2 hours there. Very beautiful, definitely worth visiting.

Visited it on an unexpectedly free day. It was a delight. A masterpiece by von Erlach (the architect of Karlskirche and Schönbrunn Palace). However, I'm not sure if it is worth the price on a usual day for everyone as there's not much to see except the architecture itself. It took only 15 minutes for me. But if you're a fan of Baroque architecture, I recommend a visit to the State Hall of Austrian National Library.

Adjacent to the Vienna City Hall, this area is surrounded by significant landmarks including the Austrian Parliament Building, the main university, and the Neo-Gothic Votiv Church.
Wow, what a beautiful place! The building itself is stunning, and the best part was that there was a Film Festival 2025 happening when we visited. It really lit up the whole area – it felt like a fair! They had installed a large screen right in front of the Rathaus building, and the atmosphere was incredible. There were so many food and drink stalls offering cuisine from different places. Aperol had its own little corner – their drinks were great too! The area was so lively. We first went during the day and loved it so much that we went back again in the evening to enjoy the atmosphere. It was even more crowded in the evening, with so many people around. A musical movie was playing on the giant screen, and the whole place was buzzing with energy.

Brasserie Palmenhaus Wien is a stunning former tropical house located in the Burggarten, offering upscale dining and drinking options. Originally built as a summer greenhouse for the Emperor in the 19th century, it now houses an impressive array of exotic plants. The restaurant serves traditional cuisine and brunch-style dishes, including sandwiches, cereals, fruits, and a special Austrian breakfast.
This was my first taste of Austrian food and also the one that stuck with me the most. I tried many more Austrian restaurants during my trip and I always found myself comparing those places to this one. The atmosphere and the outdoor seating really contributed to the vibes of this place, not to mention the food was easily some of my favorite I had on my trip.

Had breakfast at Palmenhaus Vienna and honestly, what a vibe! The place is absolutely stunning – a glasshouse full of greenery right in the middle of Burggarten, with sunlight streaming in and a view that makes you feel like you’re in a mini botanical paradise. Breakfast was tasty, fresh, and beautifully served, but I have to say the portion felt a bit small for the price. Still, the unique atmosphere, the elegant yet relaxed vibe, and the whole experience totally make it worth it. Perfect spot for a cozy morning, weekend brunch, or just coffee in a dreamy setting.

The main selling point of this location is definitely it's atmosphere. It's stunning and is lovely and light. I enjoyed the wine, coffee and dessert I had, and would recommend the apple strudel which was lovely, flaky and sweet. However, I found my main course of the gnocci a little lacking for the price point. It didn't impress me with the flavours particularly and it was very basic, but some may enjoy that , not sure if the meat options are better. I would recommend instead coming for a dessert and coffee or aperitif, and enjoying the ambience of the place. Good for a mid afternoon break, after exploring the surrounding area

This is such a nice place to have breakfast or a coffee. We were on our way to the museum, so we decided to stop here first, and I have to say, the service is great. I loved how warm and cozy it feels inside, with so much natural light. The atmosphere is perfect. The food was incredible. We had a strudel and some eggs with bacon, and everything was amazing. Living in Dubai, we don’t usually get bacon, so I ate as much bacon as possible while I was in Vienna, and it did not disappoint. This was my first breakfast in Vienna, and it was a great one. I highly recommend having breakfast here if you’re in the area. If you’re planning to visit the museum, stop by for a coffee, a pastry, a full meal, or even just a tea. It’s such a lovely place to sit, unwind, and enjoy the view.

With 10 floors of exhibits, visitors can explore diverse habitats such as coral reefs and the Amazon rainforest while observing over 10,000 sea and land animals including monkeys, birds, crocodiles, sharks and more. The aquarium also features a 300,000-liter pool where visitors can observe sharks swimming.
This was a nice aquarium within a unique building. It's one of the tallest buildings in the area with some great view on the top. Each floor is detected to certain species of animal or fish. You can easily spend 3 hours or more here (if you see and read everything). Worth the visit if you like fish!

The aquarium features not only aquatic animals but also exotic species like lemurs and pithecias. The top floor offers stunning views of Vienna. Outdoor areas allow close encounters with pithecias, though visitors should stay cautious. Most surprisingly, it was originally a WWII flak tower and it now showcases military exhibits between the 9th and 10th floors, with an excellent English-speaking guide providing detailed explanations. Overall, it’s a highly enjoyable experience.

The tour was well-organized, easy to follow and a great way to learn more about the country’s democratic processes. Highly recommended for both locals and visitors!

You really cannot do much here but to walk by. However the structure that represents a Greek architecture is beautiful. The statues are beautiful and the top of the building very ornate. You can walk by it very quickly.

A wonderful place — majestic both outside and inside! The photo exhibition in the library adds a beautiful cultural touch. A pleasant walk through the building followed by a drink on the upper level is the perfect way to end the visit.

Visiting the Austrian Parliament was an unexpected highlight of our trip. We were fortunate enough to secure tickets for one of the free guided tours—a reminder to book your spot in advance, as they are highly popular! We took part in the tour offered in Italian, and our guide was truly engaging and friendly. He led us through the stunning rooms that are the heart of Austrian democracy, explaining the building's specific architectural features and its crucial role in the country's history. The tour was absolutely fantastic, exceeding all our expectations. We were genuinely surprised by the beauty of the newly renovated interior and the deep, fascinating insights into the workings of the government. This is a must-do activity for anyone interested in history, architecture, or politics.

A very interesting experience to visit the parliament. You can book a free tour in almost all major languages. The parliament itself is grand in some parts, modest in others, and modern and austere in yet others.
Pavlo K — Google review
The Austrian Parliament Building in Vienna stands as one of the city’s grandest architectural achievements — a majestic symbol of democracy framed in neoclassical elegance. Designed by Theophil Hansen in the late 19th century, it draws inspiration from ancient Greece, the birthplace of democracy, making its architectural language both symbolic and timeless. Fronting the grand colonnade is the Pallas Athena Fountain, a masterpiece of sculptural storytelling. The central figure, the Greek goddess Athena, towers proudly with her gilded helmet, spear, and Nike (the goddess of victory) in her hand — a tribute to wisdom, justice, and the triumph of reason. Below her, four seated figures represent the major rivers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire — the Danube, Inn, Elbe, and Vltava — symbolising unity and flow beneath divine wisdom. The Parliament itself, with its marble steps, towering Corinthian columns, and sculpted pediments, feels like a temple to civic virtue. Every detail, from the statues of philosophers to the ornate reliefs above, reflects ideals of law, justice, and governance. Bathed in sunlight, with the Austrian flag waving proudly above, the building radiates both dignity and grandeur — a living reminder that architecture can speak not just of power, but of the higher ideals that guide a nation.

Das LOFT is a trendy restaurant offering innovative haute cuisine with stunning city views from its 18th-floor location at the Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom. The 21,500-square-foot illuminated ceiling by Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist adds to the contemporary setting. Despite strict building codes, this space offers 360-degree panoramic vistas of Vienna's skyline.
Came here on my birthday for the set meal by the window. View was amazing, started before sunset and after sunset it only got better! The food was outstanding quality from start to finish, I particularly enjoyed the steak! The service was incredible and they couldn't of been nicer! When making my reservation I had to give my date of birth, which they obviously read because to my surprise at the end of my meal they presented me with a little surprise birthday cake!

The food is wonderful, tasty, and well prepared. The atmosphere is amazing. I had a great seat with a wonderful view. There's only one area that was a little disappointing, and I'll categorize it as service, but don't think it was the fault of my server. A full 40 minutes passed between my starter course and main dish. If the restaurant were packed, I could maybe understand that kind of time gap, but occupancy was perhaps 50%. So I don't understand so much time passed between courses. It was such an uncomfortably long time that it impacted my overall enjoyment, which is too bad, because the restaurant was nailing everything else.

We made a reservation to celebrate our wedding anniversary and had high expectations for both the food and the overall experience. On the positive side, the restaurant is beautiful—stylishly decorated, with very comfortable chairs and amazing views of the city. At night, the rooftop lights create a stunning atmosphere. The service was friendly and attentive, which we really appreciated. When we made the reservation, we were asked if we were celebrating something—I mentioned our anniversary—but unlike someone at a nearby table who got a little birthday cake, we didn’t get anything at all. It’s not that we expected much, but it did feel like we were kind of overlooked. When you’re spending that much on a special night out, it’s a bit disappointing to see others being acknowledged and not you. We also chose the wine pairing menu. Some of the wines were delicious, while others weren’t really to our taste. If you enjoy discovering new wines from small producers, it’s a fun experience—the explanations were interesting too. But if you want to be sure you enjoy every glass, you might be better off choosing your own wine. As for the food, it was a bit hit-and-miss. The pork belly, the bread and butter, dessert, and the sides were all really good. But the main issue was with the steaks. We ordered one medium rare and one medium well, and although they were served cut in different sizes (which made us think they’d been cooked accordingly), both turned out to be well done. That was disappointing. On top of that, the sauce was overly salty—luckily the creamy gnocchi and cauliflower on the side helped balance it out. All in all, it was a nice evening with beautiful views and good service, but I’m not sure I’d go back. For the price, the food didn’t quite live up to expectations.

After trying fine dining in Bratislava at UFO, I decided to check this place out in Vienna since I kept seeing the ceiling lights always at night across the street at Schwedenplatz. Not only it was more expensive (because Vienna, duh 🙄) but the service didn't feel quite the same. Usually a wet napkin is provided at the beginning, before receiving your meals which was not provided and when I asked one of the waiters I received normal ones at least. Moreover, one of the managers and waitress was quick to see my dissatisfaction with the smoked leek dish since I had misunderstood what kind of dish it was based on a wrong assumption from Google Images (the vegetarian ingredients were messing my stomach). They were able to change my Starter to a beef tartare which was much better and I didn't get charged for the smoked leek (since I only tasted it a little). The rest was alright. For most people, I think that this place is usually more ideal for drinks. Moreover, I wish that they have implemented the food logos that you usually find in most restaurants in Vienna, that way it is easier to distinguish what kind of dish it is and what meat it contains. Maybe I will visit it again in the future and hope that my suggestions are taken into consideration 🙂.

Nestled just a short stroll from the iconic Vienna State Opera, the Schmetterlinghaus, or Imperial Butterfly House, is a stunning Art Nouveau palm house that transports visitors into a vibrant tropical rainforest. This enchanting oasis is home to over 400 species of butterflies fluttering amidst lush exotic plants and serene waterfalls.
You just have to see it for yourself. It’s such a charming little place—photos really don’t do it justice. The atmosphere is magical, especially when it’s not crowded and you can really take in the beauty of all the butterflies fluttering around and the "jungle" they live in. It’s not a big place, but that’s part of its charm. I’d definitely recommend going when it’s quieter, so you can feel the true magic of the butterflies up close. It’s one of those spots that leaves you smiling long after you leave! 🥰🦋🌸

A small but very charming place with a fair entrance fee. Even though it’s not large, you can walk around a few times and always notice something new. Strollers are a bit inconvenient inside, but there’s a place to leave them outside. Nice gift shop as well. Nice place to visit with kids

The place is magical. The garden with tropical plants gives the impression that you are in a jungle, and the butterflies flying around enhance the impression. For a moment you think that you have fallen into some animation or virtual reality. It is very hot and humid inside. It's quick to get around, it's not a big area, but we repeated the circuit to enjoy it a little more :) Butterflies is very friendly, we enjoyed a lot.

We visited Schmetterlinghaus on a Sunday — an interesting and beautiful place, though with a few things to keep in mind. It was quite crowded, and the butterfly area itself isn’t very large, so there can be some congestion and a bit of pushing around. The atmosphere inside is tropical — warm and humid — so it’s nice that there’s a coat rack area where you can leave your outerwear before entering. The space is charming: countless colorful butterflies flutter around freely, and some may even land on you — a truly magical experience. At the exit, there’s a lovely gift shop with all sorts of butterfly-themed souvenirs, from jewelry to toys. There’s also a free restroom available, which is convenient for visitors. The entrance fee is €20 per person — not the cheapest, but for those who love nature and want to see butterflies up close, it’s an experience worth having.

Kahlenberg, a 1588 ft. hill located just outside Vienna in the Vienna Woods, offers stunning city views and a peaceful retreat into nature. Visitors can explore walking trails through the surrounding forests and enjoy panoramic vistas of the city skyline and the Danube River. The hill is home to cozy cafes, restaurants, and the historic Kahlenberg Church, adding cultural appeal to its natural beauty.
I went here on my last day. I almost didn’t go as it was the last thing on my agenda but I’m so glad I did! You take the 38A bus up - best bus journey of my life. It is the last stop and you are very much there. Great views from the top overlooking Vienna. Definitely bring a jacket / wrap up.

The Jewish Museum of the City of Vienna offers a comprehensive exploration of Jewish culture and history in Vienna, spanning from medieval times to the present day. The museum is divided between two locations, Dorotheergasse and Judenplatz, both within close proximity to each other. The former focuses on 19th and early 20th century Jewish life in Vienna, while the latter showcases the thriving Jewish community during the Middle Ages up to the Holocaust in 1420.
The exhibition about the 3rd generation is very interesting. For me, it was a new look to the topic, in a way that I have never thought about it before. The children of the Holocaust survivors dealt first hand with the psychological effects, but the grandkids of the survivors have a different view and experience to it. Very interesting approach and the visit is highly recommended

It's a must see museum. Nothing prepared us for the enormous quantity of Judaica Objects. Most of them were taken from Jewish synagogues all over Austria during the Holocaust.

Augarten is a Baroque-style park in Vienna, featuring a royal palace, five kids' play areas, sporting facilities, and cultural events. The park dates back to the 17th century when it was used as a hunting area and lodge. It boasts formal gardens established by designer Jean Trehet in 1705 and is home to the Augarten Porzellanmanufaktur, one of Europe's oldest porcelain factories.

Augarten Park is one of Vienna’s most beautiful and historically rich green spaces. Nestled in the heart of the city’s second district, this meticulously maintained park offers a perfect blend of tranquility, culture, and history. The first thing you notice upon entering Augarten is how well taken care of it is. The gardens are immaculately groomed, with tree-lined alleys, colorful flowerbeds, and expansive lawns that invite visitors to relax, walk, or picnic. The park is family-friendly, with playgrounds for children and open areas that cater to joggers, dog walkers, and those simply looking to unwind. Despite being a popular destination, it never feels overcrowded due to its generous size and thoughtful layout. What truly sets Augarten apart, however, is its historical depth. Dating back to the 17th century, the park was originally laid out as a baroque garden and has retained its classical charm. It’s home to the stunning Palais Augarten, a baroque palace that today houses the world-famous Vienna Boys’ Choir. The palace and its surroundings provide a unique backdrop that adds a sense of grandeur to the entire park. A striking and sobering reminder of more recent history are the two massive World War II flak towers that still stand within the park. These concrete giants, once used for air defense, serve as historical landmarks and symbols of Vienna’s complex past. Their presence offers a powerful contrast to the peaceful surroundings and invites reflection on the city’s wartime experience. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or just someone in search of a peaceful place to spend an afternoon, Augarten Park is a must-visit. It’s a place where Vienna’s layered history and natural beauty come together, making it both a serene escape and a living monument.

Nestled in Vienna's 19th district, Setagaya Park is a serene Japanese garden that offers a delightful escape from the city's hustle and bustle. Open from April to October, this tranquil oasis features picturesque ponds, meandering streams, and stunning cherry blossom trees that create a breathtaking spectacle in spring. Designed by Ken Nakajima in 1992, the park showcases traditional Japanese elements such as carefully curated plantings of Japanese maples and an inviting tea house.
I loved this nature scene in the city, I think It's quite small, but it is definitely worth a visit, especially in the late springtime. The koi fishes were beautiful and the whole garden just had a really good feeling about it.

It's such a pretty park with all the cherry blossoms! 🌸 But wow, it was packed; it's hard to walk around and get a good photo. We went on Friday evening. It's a tiny park, but really nice. Finding a parking spot on the street will be a bit tough.

Palais Daun-Kinsky, located in Vienna, is a stunning example of Baroque architecture that offers visitors a glimpse into the city's rich cultural history. The palace's intricate facade and well-preserved interiors showcase the opulence and artistry of its former aristocratic residents. It is a popular spot for photography enthusiasts due to its beautiful ceilings, sculptures, and staircases. Additionally, the palace serves as a venue for private events such as weddings and birthday parties.
My current favorite palace near the center of Vienna. It is available for booking events but also has a hall that you can visit for free Magnificent, extraordinary and classical interior filled with carved stone and painted ceilings.

Schönbrunn Palace Park, the former summer residence of the royal family, is a UNESCO site and an essential part of Vienna's cultural heritage. The Baroque-style gardens surrounding the magnificent palace feature well-kept lawns, intricate flower beds, and elegant fountains.
Even if you're not planning on going inside the palace, a trip to the gardens is definitely a MUST in Vienna. You can easily spend hours and hours walking around this massive complex while savouring some of the best views you'll ever see. Vienna is a charming city and this place proves why!
Guilherme C — Google review
best part about it is that the main, huge part of the park is completely free to enter, so you don't even have to buy a palace ticket to get a taste of the imperial life. ​it's massive, so plan to do a lot of walking. you've got the perfectly manicured great parterre right in front of the palace, with all the statues and fountains. it's so symmetrical and fancy, you feel like you're in a period drama. then there are the less formal parts of the park, with big trees and winding paths. you'll see locals jogging, families with kids, and tourists like me just trying to take it all in. ​a big must-do is the walk up to the gloriette. it's a bit of a climb up a gentle hill, but the view is just... chef's kiss. you look down on the whole palace and the city beyond it. it's a great photo spot and there's even a cafe up there if you need a little reward for your effort. ​there are also a few smaller, special areas you can pay to enter, like the maze, which is fun for a quick break from all the history, and the privy garden, which is a more secluded, ornate part of the garden. and of course, the zoo is also on the grounds and is a whole attraction in itself. ​it's a perfect mix of formal beauty and natural space. you can easily spend an entire afternoon here, getting lost in the paths and just enjoying the scenery

Phenomenal view & service from this rooftop bar. There’s a hidden entrance/ no obvious signage from the street. Just hop in the lift and head to the top floor. We were lucky and managed to get a table just walking in - but booking is definitely recommended as it’s a popular spot.

Avoid this rooftop bar at all costs! Really disappointed. I went to Lamée Rooftop yesterday with my mum to celebrate my birthday. She called in the morning to make a reservation and asked if they could prepare a small birthday gesture, like writing “Happy Birthday” next to a dessert. The staff on the phone said it was possible, maybe with an extra charge and we agreed. When we arrived, my mum reminded them again. One waiter said it wasn’t possible. She asked another one, who brought the manager over. The manager said they couldn’t do candles but would definitely prepare “something small.” We stayed for over two hours, had two rounds of drinks and nothing ever came. No birthday surprise, no follow-up, nothing. Terrible communication and service. We chose this place because they said yes on the phone. If they had just said no, we would’ve gone somewhere else. Not coming back. Not recommended.

A really beautiful restaurant inside a cellar. You are feeling that you are in a medieval restaurant. Amazing pork schnitzel( it surely was as good as expected), huge portions, with tasteful potato salad. We also tried local sausages and two glasses of wine (55€ in total for two persons).

I would say that the restaurant is mainly aimed at tourists who come only once. The service was OK, wiener schitzel and beer standard (33,50€ I rounded it to 35€ and pay by card). The most interesting thing is the location under the ground. The toilet is a bit small, you have to be careful.

Dog friendly and interesting old world atmosphere. Food was great especially the appetizer pretzel they bring you at the beginning of the meal.

While curiosity often leads to good experiences, this local “Wiener Schnitzel” restaurant is one to avoid. The service was overly pushy and borderline rude – we were barely given time to look at the menu before being rushed to order. That set the tone for the evening. The food arrived with a black hair in it, forcing us to send the dish back. A replacement was provided, but with no apology, service recovery, or compensation of any kind. Matters only got worse when the waiter began clearing plates! My wife had just finished, yet while I was still cutting into my schnitzel, the waiter started taking my plate away mid-meal. To finish, the bill came with tips already added by the waiter without any communication or consent – an unprofessional and unacceptable practice. All in all, a disrespectful and careless dining experience. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this restaurant entirely.

We had a disappointing experience here. First, we were charged 50 cents each just to use the toilet — €1 in total — and only received coupons as compensation after we had already ordered our food. The food itself was okay for the price, nothing to complain about there. Unfortunately, the service was poor from start to finish. Our waiter was completely disengaged, never communicative or friendly, and gave the impression that he really didn’t want to be there. We were polite and did nothing to cause this attitude. When it came time to pay, we mentioned we had two toilet coupons. He brought the bill without applying them and didn’t even ask how we wanted to pay — he just processed it as a cash payment. When we said we needed to pay by card, he became visibly annoyed and had to go back to make a new receipt. No thank you, no acknowledgment — just grumpiness. We had already left a €2 tip on the table, which we immediately regretted. He didn’t deserve it at all. Not applying the toilet coupon discount wasn’t a huge deal financially, but it was disappointing in principle. If you care about friendly service, be warned — we hope you don’t end up with the same waiter, or that he sees this review and reflects on how he treats guests.

I went to this café with my mom and a friend a few days ago on a Sunday afternoon. My mom ordered a strudel and a coffee and we sat on the table with her, but since we had already eaten, we didn't order anything. Then a waiter came to take our orders and my friend and I said we were fine and didn't want anything. So the waiter said we had to order something to use the table. Otherwise, we'd have to leave. I then pointed that my mom had ordered and that an hour earlier my husband and I had also ordered sweets and coffees in that same café. Still, the man said we needed to order things if we wanted to use the table. If not, we had to leave. In the end, my mom was left alone in the café with no company because we of course did not want to pick a fight. I have been to a ton of cafés, but this is the most absurd idea I've ever seen: you must eat alone if your friends/family don't order anything. Needless to say, there were many tables available at the time. There was no reason to kick us out like that. And even if there were no more tables available, cafés are supposed to be cozy places where you can enjoy time with friends and family, not an individual eating competition. But I guess now I understand why there were so many tables available: they have terrible service and atmosphere. Food was okay, but no food in the world would be able to compensate this. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Also, they charge €0,50 for the toilet even if you order something, which is nuts.

Bad experience. This restaurant is not meant for human consumption. I first gave the service 3 stars, but one of my friends didn't want to give a tip because he, just like me, couldn't eat to much. The waiter inserted the tip into the bill without telling us. When my friend said the bill wasn't ok the waiter said "is only a 10% addition". We said the food was awfull and the meal didn't desearve a tip. The waiter then asked us what was wrong - the reason he asked us was not because we barely touched the food, but beacause we didn't wan't to give a tip. Poor food, poor service!

Excellent experience, I would even describe it as decadent. The beautiful historic room has amazing acoustics, the musicians are extremely talented, and the music selections and program length were ideal to make the experience enjoyable and accessible to even kids and casual fans. As a hobby violinist I have sat through (and performed in) my share of dismally boring string quartet performances and this was anything but that! Energetic, fun, and in a venue steeped in romanticism and dreaminess. A lovely evening activity in Vienna. My one caution would be to arrive earlier than you think you need to; many people have reported struggling to find the entrance and once we were there and in line to get in 15 minutes before the performance started, it still took 20 minutes to be seated and there were still a number of people in line behind us who were there before 8pm but not seated until after the performance had started

Actually one of the true highlights of our trip to Vienna!! Maybe 30 people in this beautiful Sala Terrena makes it so special. The program was excellent (clap only after the last movement of each piece… some have 4) There was a small intermission with drinks for purchase and a coat room to hang your things. The Sala is warm, you won’t need it. We did get a little lost getting there due to construction on the other side of the street. We end up going down an alley and to the second door on your right (if you’ve missed the main entrance). We paid the extra EU for front row seats, if you’re gonna go, I’d do it this way again. Please please be respectful of the rules and the musicians and don’t record during the concert. It is so rude and the woman next to me decided it was her entitlement to try and secretly record most of the concert. Hugely distracting, sound on her on/off button, screen shining and just horrifically crass.

It's simply wonderful that the University offers for free such a beautiful open air museum!

Cute little garden. Remember - it's free. Enough to take you away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist Vienna. At the same time, you are close to all of it and can return as soon as you are recharged and ready to explore again. Every plant is labeled with Austrian precision. You will learn the name of every little plant in the garden. The Alpine section was my favorite, along with the cacti .

The Botanical Garden of the University of Vienna is a peaceful, green oasis next to Belvedere Palace. It’s free to enter and has many plants and trees, perfect for a relaxing walk. The garden is well-maintained, with clear plant labels and a small tropical house.
Ramdas P — Google review
Lovely place, peacefull and not crowded. Plenty of plants, well organized. We even saw squirrels. Next to Belvedere Museum. Free entrance.
Laura M — Google review
Free admission, interesting, in terms of botanical gardens it's less impressive, we liked the rockery
Alonit R — Google review
The Botanischer Garten was a delightful surprise. It begins gently, with herbs and wildflowers arranged in an understated, almost whispering setting, all while the air grows thick with the warm, resinous scent of pine. You wander along quiet paths beneath leafy canopies in the informal garden, letting the calm settle in. Further on, the landscape shifts—more structured, more curated. Here, flowering trees catch the light, exotic plants draw your eye, and a bamboo grove adds a touch of the unexpected. But the true gem lies near the southern edge: the alpine garden. Utterly charming and deeply soothing, it’s a place you won’t want to leave—and truly, one you shouldn’t miss.
