After a year, we found ourselves back in Vienna, feeling at home, cozy, beautiful, and majestic. For a few days, we strolled through these vibrant streets, indulged in art at the Belvedere museums, walked through the modern architectural wonder of the Vienna University Campus, visited craft shops and a massive craft beer store, sat on a bench in the museum quarter, and, of course, took a refreshing walk in the park after the rain.
The Belvedere Palace is not just another architectural monument, but a true Baroque masterpiece. The Lower Belvedere preserves the ambiance of the apartments of the Prince of Savoy, showcasing collections of sculptures and paintings. In the Upper Belvedere, magnificent collections of 19th and 20th-century art are displayed, including works by Monet and Van Gogh, Renoir and Schiele, Kokoschka, and the renowned Austrian artist Gustav Klimt.
The creation of the new campus of the Vienna University of Economics and Business involved globally renowned architects. As a result, Vienna now boasts not only a new university but also a new destination for anyone interested in architecture.
In the new university campus, the most striking feature is the unique library building, designed by Zaha Hadid Architects. It serves as the centerpiece, surrounded by other structures. The futuristic architecture captivates attention with its originality. The interior spaces are equally practical, considering it is a university campus after all.
Hallstatt is a small town located on the shore of a lake surrounded by mountains, in a remote and inaccessible location, away from the highways.
I’ll say it right away, 3 days for Vienna is catastrophically short, especially at the end of such a long journey.
Undoubtedly, Salzburg is one of the most charming cities in Austria, with its unique character, architecture, and history, attracting a large number of tourists.
