About Vienna

Vienna consistently ranks as the world's most liveable city, and the reasons are immediately apparent. The Ringstrasse boulevard encircles the Innere Stadt, lined with the State Opera, Kunsthistorisches Museum, and Parliament. Schönbrunn Palace and its gardens rival Versailles. The city's Kaffeehauskultur (coffee house culture) is UNESCO-protected — sit for hours over a Melange and Sachertorte. Classical music permeates everything: Mozart, Beethoven, Strauss, and Schubert all called Vienna home. The MuseumsQuartier, one of the world's largest cultural complexes, houses contemporary art alongside imperial treasures.
