Essential Vienna & Prague

There is something extravagant about Vienna. From the Viennese waltz, the famous Viennese Sacher Torte to the large Imperial Palaces that appear across the city landscape, Vienna is urban seduction. The dizzy heights of the Prater’s Ferris wheel give way to the Ottoman charm of the Viennese Kaffeehaus, the Viennese urban farmers markets that eclipse every city square, concert halls and opera houses hidden in places where one least expects them, juxtaposed against the pomp and ceremony of the Spanish Riding School and its Lipizzaner horses – Vienna, the Austrian capital & the “City of Music”, oozes flamboyant sophistication, mystery, elegance, and tradition.



Make a stop at the Hofburg, the Hapsburg Imperial Winter Palace (the largest palace complex structure in the world), which was the former governmental center of the Hapsburg Austro-Hungarian Empire. You can see these imperial rooms and stop at the Royal Apartments, where Sisi once lived. If you are music and opera lovers, you may stop at the Musikhaus, Mozart House and Beethoven house, which are now museums dedicated to the many famous musicians that have lived there. If you are also interested in psychopathology, the father: Sigmund Freud, is from Vienna and you can visit his apartment located in the city center.
