On our way down, we decipher the three-leveled gardens and the play with visual tricks before we enter the Lower Belvedere.

Pass By: Lower Belvedere, Rennweg 6a, Vienna 1030 Austria

The garden room and the honor court make us understand what Prince Eugene brought to Vienna from Versailles – on a miniature scale though.

Pass By: Heldendenkmal der Roten Armee, Schwarzenbergplatz, Vienna Austria

Schwarzenbergplatz is dominated by the Soviet Memorial and surrounded by a mix of buildings illustrating Vienna’s boom period at the end of the 1800 hundreds.

Pass By: Karlskirche, Kreuzherrengasse 1 Karlsplatz/Belevedere Quarter, Vienna 1040 Austria

Built to impress from a distance, this church sets the stage for Austria’s most glorious epoch in the 1700 hundreds. Baroque at it’s best.

Pass By: Otto Wagner Pavillon Karlsplatz, Karlsplatz, Vienna 1040 Austria

Functional though elegant – the Otto Wagner metro-station at Karlsplatz represents another of Vienna’s moments of glory, the time around 1900, Art Nouveau!

Pass By: Musikvereinsplatz 1 Bosendorferstrasse 12, Vienna 1010 Austria

The Wiener Musikverein (Viennese Music Association) is the home of the Vienna Philharmonic orchestra. The "Great/Golden Hall" (Großer Saal), due to its highly regarded acoustics, is considered one of the finest concert halls in the world.

Stop At: Secession Building (Secessionsgebaude), Friedrichstrasse 12, Vienna 1010 Austria

The Secession Building is as an architectural manifesto for Art Nouveau. Built by a group of rebel artists seceding from the long-established fine art institution.

Klimt painted the Beethoven Frieze for an exhibition in celebration of the composer. Meant for the exhibition only, the frieze was painted directly on the walls with light materials. It culminates in "a kiss to the world".


Duration: 30 minutes

Pass By: Vienna Naschmarkt, Kettenbrückengasse, Vienna 1040 Austria

The Naschmarkt in its current, transitional stage dates to 1915 and is a mixture of a market and an international food experience. Perfect for a “al fresco” lunch or a tasty late afternoon snack.
