"The streets of Vienna are paved with culture, the streets of other cities with asphalt", writer and literary critic Karl Kraus once said about Vienna, and he is right. Vienna is one of the grandest capital cities in Europe, and one of the most compact, too. We discover the making of Vienna from Roman "Vindobona" to the capital of one of the largest empires in Europe. See the most famous landmarks and sights, amongst them the one-time Imperial Palace of the Hapsburg family, the Viennese State Opera and all the nooks and crannies that make Vienna so Viennese. |
