Vienna
Where art, culture, and the joy of life come together
Vienna: One of the most liveable cities in the world!
From the heights of Kahlenberg, you are treated to a breathtaking view of the Danube, while Vienna reveals itself in all its splendour. Vineyards stretch out before you, with the architectural heritage of this Central European metropolis shining in the background. For half a millennium, world history has been written here – and art history even more so.
Few major cities can boast a historic cityscape as intact as Vienna's, dominated by grand buildings from the Baroque and Gründerzeit eras. A drive along the famous Ringstrasse takes you past the State Opera, the Museum of Art History and the Museum of Natural History, the Parliament, the Burgtheater, and the Town Hall.
At the very heart of the city, the Gothic St Stephen's Cathedral casts a shadow over a slice of the Middle Ages. The palaces and parks from the Habsburg era – Schönbrunn Palace with its Gloriette and zoo, the Belvedere, and the vast Hofburg complex housing the Imperial Apartments, the Sisi Museum, and the Silver Collection – give the city an imperial grandeur, further enriched by magnificent buildings from the Art Nouveau period.
A City for Connoisseurs
"Wien, Wien, du allein / Sollst stets die Stadt meiner Träume sein” – this famous Viennese song poetically captures what a Canadian-American consultancy firm has officially confirmed: Vienna is a marvellous city, with an exceptionally high quality of life. Indeed, Vienna ranks among the most liveable cities in the world.
The Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel is one of the oldest in the world and offers spectacular views of the city. An iconic symbol of Vienna and a highlight of the Prater.

Music is in the air
In the city of music, the Vienna Philharmonic is Vienna’s cultural flagship. Conductors from around the world consider it an honour to lead the New Year’s Concert in the 'Golden Hall' of the Musikverein – an acoustic masterpiece. The Vienna Boys' Choir also enchants audiences worldwide with their singing.
But Vienna offers more than just classical music: The jazz scene thrives at the Porgy & Bess club, while electronic beats pulse along the Danube Canal.
At Christmas, Vienna’s churches turn their grand halls into spaces filled with magical sounds. Whether classical choirs or festive organ music, these concerts fill the city with a reflective atmosphere, bringing Christmas magic to the heart of Vienna.
