The capital, Vienna is one of the top-most places to visit in Austria. Some of its most famous residents include Freud, Beethoven and Mozart. Beautiful, Imperial palaces can be spotted everywhere, such as Schönbrunn Palace, which was the summer residence of Habsburg Rulers or the Belvedere Palace with its gorgeous art collection, including several Klimt pieces.
The Vienna State Opera is also here, producing more than 50 operas and 10 ballet performances in a year. The Prater Amusement Park also features the Wiener Riesenrad, the 212 ft tall Ferris Wheel which is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city. Other interesting museums here include Kunsthistorisches and the Albertina, both of which are art museums.
In fact, in Vienna, there’s also the Museums Quartier, a restored area with several historic and modern buildings. If you’re looking to have a culinary taste of Vienna, then don’t miss the Naschmarkt, a 16th century market with vintage stalls as well as food stalls and restaurants.
