The visit to the one that was the winter residence of the imperial family leads to the discovery of the 18 rooms of the Royal Apartments, which is the former private apartments of Franz Joseph and Elisabeth in large part with the original furnishings; the Museum of Silverware of the Court with its sumptuous tableware, precious collections of oriental porcelain, Sevres and Meissen, the solid silver tableware; dedicated to Sissi Museum through numerous personal items (clothing, jewelry, portraits) he tells the story of the Empress of Austria, one of the most beautiful women of her time and discussed, by youth in Bavaria until death at the hands of an Italian anarchist in 1898.
Inside the Hofburg (entrance from the courtyard of the Swiss), there is the Schatzkammer, ie the Chamber of Imperial Treasury that collects the sacred and the profane treasure of the Habsburgs. The museum contains priceless objects.
St. Stephen's Cathedral
The St. Stephen's Cathedral is a work of high gothic engineering. From the top of its bell tower you can admire the magnificent Vienna !. The roof is made up of decorated and colored tiles in 4 green shades white ocher and gray slate. Amazing the minute detail of the interior decorations from the pulpit to the balustrades finely chiseled. The complete tour can be made finished messa. 
Before you can visit the bell tower the only fee (children free) and once climbed as you can remember to print the price of 1 euro and a 5 cent coin with the image of the Cathedral .Art History Museum
The museum, in addition to being a stunning masterpiece at the architectural level, exposes the inside works by Klimt, Bellini, Lotto, Tintoretto, Canova, Caravaggio, Mantegna and many other Italian and foreign artists. In addition to paintings they are also the eastern Egyptian collection and the Roman and Greek antiquities collection.
The prices are really optimal for students and youth. One thing that no one knows is that with the ticket bought at the museum is included in the price to the museum of armor / sculptures / ancient musical instruments in the area of Imperial Palace, near the National Library!Albertina Museum
Beautiful museum in the center of Vienna super recommended. He was given this name in 1921 in honor of Archduke Albert of Saxony, whose statue stands in the square outside, son of Maria Theresa, founder of the collection and a great lover of culture. Inside there are works by Picasso, Monet, Degas, Cesanne, Matisse and many other wonders. Very beautiful and interesting photo exhibition on the ground floor. Ticket price € .12,00; It closes at 18.00 and Wednesdays at 21.00. Crowning the collection recommend to visit the museum located in the exhibition spaces of the Belvedere!
The Prater
All right, after all visits to museums and monuments of the city a nice ride in the Vienna Prater is not denied to anyone! The famous park in the center of the city so dear to the Viennese who throng its meadows and its tree-lined boulevards dotted with cafes, restaurants and kiosks is considered one of the ten most beautiful city parks in the world.
Once an imperial hunting ground, today the so-called "Green Prater" is the ideal place to passaeggiare, jogging, cycling or turn it up and down with the small train Liliputbahn. The initial part is occupied by Volksprater also said "Wurstelprater" (named after a popular Viennese mask), the largest amusement park with over 250 attractions (ranging from nostalgic rollercoaster all'ultamoderno flight simulator via the train of ' horror, the indoor roller coaster, the timeless puppet theater, and even a wax museum), on which "stands" the famous Riesenrad, the Giant Ferris wheel, opened in 1897 (and rearranged in 2008) and became one of the symbols of Vienna, which allows you to enjoy a beautiful view of the city from a height of nearly 65 meters. You can not say they've been to Vienna if you step on the Big Wheel! Near the wheel is the Planetarium which thanks to the special laser image projector, grants to large and children's Travels in the starry sky.
The world of Hundertwasser
Council to see it because it is very special. Affects the presence of color, mosaic pieces and scattered here and there windows. On the roof you can see the so-called onion domes. A 'other feature of this house is the presence of trees located on the balcony and roof. Outside of it you can notice a English booth. An 'other feature is the ripple of the floor. In the same style you will also find the 'Spittelau incinerator. It is said that the style of Hundertwasser reminds a little Gaudi. I recommend you calculate that for the visit are enough just ten minutes. As the 'building is inhabited and you can not for this reason to visit the interior.
