Well these are no high quality but handheld shots I took during my two days in Vienna last week.
Hope you enjoy them nevertheless.

Beautiful city. I would like to visit some day. Is Vienna a very expensive place to have a vacation?

[Evergrey]

my goodness, that city is amazing.... thank you so much

[keninhalifax]

O Vienna! I know we are meant to someday be together!

Thank you for your photos, you provided us with a very extensive tour of this marvellous city!

[LouisianaRush]

WOW. Fantastic shots man.

[soleri]

Those intimate old blocks are stunning. Vienna is not my favorite city - it's a bit too "imperial" in its form and architecture. But there's more than enough to savor for even a cynic like me.

[Florence26]

Beautiful pics

Wien it is a beautifulst city have been 24 November when there were the markt christmas of been born them sin not to have carried the camera!!!:shrug:

[tayser]

sehr schöne stadt.

[flar]

Incredible architecture, one of Europe's finest cities

[KevinFromTexas]

Now there's a city we don't see enough of. Beautiful. Thanks a bunch for posting these.

[UrbanSophist]

Great tour. Thanks.

[olga]

Absolutely stunning! What an amazing collection of architectural gems. I have to go to Vienna some day.

[mrherodotus]

Wow! No words could adequately describe the glory of this city.

[Jularc]

What a fantastic place to walk around!

[Alemaria]

Beautiful city. I would like to visit some day. Is Vienna a very expensive place to have a vacation?

I don't think so. There are many real nice restaurants and bars that are really not expensive.
We stayed in a hostel (wombat's) that cost me 57 Euro for three nights, not too bad.
Furthermore puclic transport is also very affordable and many tourists special rates are offered.

There's much more to see in Vienna than my pictures showed. I was in Vienna during the summer of 2004 and didn't visit the parts of the city I saw back then this time.

The Museumsquartier is really great, and I recommend visiting the Sigmund Freud Museum and driving the go-karts at the Prater is always fun. :D
We also were in a really nice resedential area where we saw people wall-climbing a church wall. That whole neighbourhood was nice, sadly I forgot which part of town it was.
You could also visit the Gasometer and stroll through Hietzing.

Vienna offers far too much for two days or even four.

I still haven't been to the UN area, maybe next time, I'll be back for sure.

[MayorOfChicago]

Excellent, I just booked my hotel to Vienna yesterday! I'm going in May and was very interested to see what it looked like. Looks very "heavy", but beautiful.

[Wheelingman04]

I have always wanted to go to Vienna. I knew it was beautiful and those pics definately confirm that.

[excel]

Beautiful place, cant wait to visit some day.

[James Bond Agent 007]

Beautiful!

I like the Starbucks. :D

[Farrapo]

Stunning city! It's one of my favorites! Amazing architecture! Love it! Thanks for sharing! ;)

[Evergrey]

Did you try the famous Viennese coffeeshops, Alemaria?

[Alemaria]

Did you try the famous Viennese coffeeshops, Alemaria?

Of course.
Had a Wiener Melange and even ate a Sachertorte in the famous Hotel Sacher (8 Euro !!). :)

[Sacto]

Amazing city. Love the architecture. Thanks for the pics.

[city dweller]

"Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
eating chocolate cake in a bag.
The newspaper said, "She's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag."
-The Beatles

So did you eat any chocolate cake in a bag? Is that a popular thing to do in Austria, or just used in the song? BTW, awesome photos, eastern Europe has one incredible city after the other.

My favorite. The crow is a nice touch.

[Trojan in NYC]

these pictures are awesome. Vienna is beautiful.

[gatt]

beautiful architecture.

[M II A II R II K]

No shortage of interesting architecture there.

[R@ptor]

Nice photos. :)

[MayDay]

Some great shots of some absolutely gorgeous buildings - love the photo of the Secession Building, I wrote a paper on the Secessionists for my undergrad art history minor:

Oops, missed this thread the last time around.
One of the most beautiful cities I have ever visited. I spent 4-5 days there a couple of months ago - I'll have a thread going up... next year or so. ;)

[ColDayMan]

Great!

[Kingofthehill]

That's some world-class architecture you've got there, Vienna.
