How to describe Vienna, the world famous capital of Austria in short words? Impossible! 1,9 Mio. inhabitants – 2,8 Mio. including surroundings – makes one third of the total population in Austria. The best is to start with the Wiener Ringstraße, this way you find one beautiful sight seeing point after the other from different style eras, going back 500 years in history and sometimes more. The city skyline is still dominated by the architects of the Austrian monarchy, the whole town is a UNESCO world heritage site. Vienna still has the architectural strength and cultural dominance that hints at the fact that 120 years ago the city was among the 10 most important and biggest cities in the world (at that time bigger than Tokyo). As it is not possible to give a brief but meaningful overview of Vienna, we recommend buying a travel guide for this purpose.
