Wien

Vienna is set in a marvellous decor of predominantly Baroque architecture. The city has its own elegant art of living in this beautiful setting, whether in its cafés or in the simple joyous atmosphere of its taverns. A city of traditions, cosmopolitan and with a strong musical heritage, Vienna has played a prominent role in world culture. Although the nostalgia of the Habsburgs still lingers in the background, it has a flourishing cultural life, supported by one of Europe's most impressive artistic legacies.
