Stephansplatz and Graben
If you arrive in Vienna, not how to miss a walk in the heart of the city. There, watches the Stephansdom, the most beautiful Gothic edifice of Austria. I'm trying to compare it with the Milan Cathedral. Both have their beauty and magnificence. We arrived in the evening and, unfortunately, I could not climb the Tower, but I admired and photographed the exterior and interior of the or. The entrance to the Cathedral is free, but to climb the towers or visit the altars, must be paid. Giant gate (main gate), named so after finding a mammoth bone during its construction, is framed by two Roman towers, the Cathedral offers a spectacular image. I was impressed and plated with mosaic roof, as we find and we see the Church of St. John the new of Suceava, the clock tower in Sighisoara, fortified Saxon churches and not onl
I left the dome behind and I walked on the street in front of it, namely the Graben, considered to be one of the most beautiful pedestrian streets in Vienna. It is famous by the architecture of the buildings, monuments, shops and its restaurants. I first met the fountain of lions, named so due to the two lion heads from which water is gushing. Then we found ourselves in front of one of the most beautiful monuments ever seen: Pestsaule or ' plague ' column ', attraction for all those photos of soul. Its construction is related to the epidemic of plague which struck Austria now hundreds of years, making countless victims. Copies of its smaller, is located in Austrian cities.
The park in centre on Vienn
The Park is crossed by the river Wien, very nicely decorated. We ate an icecream -2, 90 euro two cups-and we went to the place in which music could be heard. A few young people were playing different instruments, and the place was full of world ... standing on the benches or just on the grass. With a glass of beer in hand, stood and listened the the sound of music. For a few minutes we joined their ... What struck us was the fact that while scrobiti, men shirt or skirt and heels women, venisera cycling. In Vienna there are fewer cars on the street than on two wheels vehicles. Circulate your own bike or rent one. There are many places, places where, on the basis of a card, you can take your bicycle. Go where you want and you return in another such place. display all existing cubicles near the rental places, you can see how many vacancies there are, how many bikes available exist ... Yes, totally different from us.
Volksgarten and the Burggarten are two other parks in downtown Vienna worth seeing. The imperial court or garden burggarten is situated near the Hofburg Palace. Don't miss the House of Butterflies at the Conservatory. Pretty close to the Palace, there is a small pond with a fountain, where they found shelter some rate with their babes. They made the entire evening delight, intucat our little girl no longer wanted to go. Volksgarten is full of roses, many varieties of roses, in hundreds of colors. I did a lot of photos with flowers and trees. Impressive is the Temple of Theseus, in fact a copy of the one in Athens.
Church Votiva
Coming out of the Park, we headed to church votiva. In front of her stood another oasis of calm and relaxation, namely Sigmund Freud park. We sat on the grass to admire the monument in front of us. On sunbeds, dozens of people ... We wonder what it is with them. During the summer, the Mayor brings 100 sunbeds for those who want to lie on them. Funny, I could say, but at the same time, awesome.
Rathauspark is symmetrically arranged between University Park and Parliament. I sawit in the evening and I can't say much because the teeming world of music, food and drinks is not my specialty. I think it is superb ... they are organized all kinds of festivities. I was two nights in a row.
Karlschurch- the church that takes your breath
Two Angels guarding the entrance, as a symbol of the Catholic faith. In front of the church stands a fountain, on which a lot of people just sit and admire the beauty of the place. After a few pictures that I've done with the entry, I stepped inside. I think we all know the expression "with the open mouth ' remains ' the ... This happened to us when we saw the tall gold-plated altar ... and we were cut off breathing.We were interested in what I represent: Karl road to heaven.
I wanted to take a thousand pictures, but I was walking on tiptoes to not disturbing, not to erase the magic created. It was quiet, it was the perfect place for contemplation, for Thanksgiving and I left the magnificence and tranquility leave mind induced.
Kitzbühel city is at your feet, the Lake that can be seen in his right hand, how do you look up. Another reason to climb the Kitzbüheler Horn was to visit the Alpen Blumen Garten-Alpine Botanical Garden. The entrance is free of charge. From the summit station of the Kitzbüheler Horn, at 2,000 meters, we descended to the Alpen Blumen Garten about 1.880 m. Here are species of plants from some of the major mountain areas: Himalayas, Pyrenees, Alps.
After lunch, the siesta, the occasion of various situations of people surprised by the beach and swim in the Lake. A Yorkshire-they were the only cars with numbers around Germany has found it fit to strip to the nude naked just when we were passing over there (to the delight of the girls) and to throw himself into the water. I expected the same from his girlfriend, but she, went into the water in the bathing suit. Disappointed, I walked away, all seeking the shadow of Woods, as the sun burned away as his mother Peas during the Carnival.
Vienn is amazing but you cannot miss the other places I mentioned above.
