Beautiful Cities of Austria
Vienna: Residence of the Imperial court for six centuries, Vienna is full of arts and delights. Most sightseeing is centered in the heart of the city bound by the Ringstrasse, embracing the Vienna State Opera House; the landmark St. Stephen’s Cathedral; and the Imperial Palace, former residence of the Habsburgs and now housing several spectacular museums: the Ephesos, the Ethnographical, the Musical Instruments. Art lovers will not want to miss the Museum of Fine Arts, housing the princely collection of the art-loving Habsburgs; the reopened Albertina, with one of the greatest collection of graphic arts – from Rembrandt to Picasso – in the world; the Museum of Modern Art, with class works ranging from Mondrian to Moore. Locator: 40 mi. from Bratislava; 166 mi. from Budapest; 217 mi. from Prague
Linz: Capital of Upper Austria and straddling the Danube River, Linz’s old city is a charmer, and the new arts centers – the Lentos Museum and The Museum of Electronic Art (Ars Electronica Center) – are crowd pleasers. For a panoramic view of the river valley, take a steep train ride up Postlingberg Hill, crowned by a pilgrimage church, and journey 10 miles from town to the Baroque Abbey of St. Florian. Locator: 115 mi. from Vienna
Salzburg: Discover the architectural charms of Salzburg, the “Sound of Music” city, on a walking tour of picturesque narrow lanes, old squares, church towers and a unique palace. Sites not to miss include the 17th century Dom (cathedral), the Glockenspiel whose 36 bells ring out with Mozart tunes, and the opulent Residenz Palace adjoining the Salzburg Cathedral, with its Residenzgalerie housing a princely collection of Dutch Masters. Locator: 115 mi. from Innsbruck; 88 mi. from Munich
Innsbruck: Often referred to as the capital of the Alps, Innsbruck boasts a more than 800-year-old city center, as well as some spectacular new architecture. Do not miss a visit to the new Ski Jump Tower, designed by Zaha Hadid, or a visit to the Swarovski Crystal Worlds. Locator: 296 mi. from Vienna, 115 mi. from Salzburg, 102 mi. from Munich.
