In Vienna, the coffee house isn’t just a hangout: it’s an institution. Lingering over a newspaper with a pastry and a strong espresso drink is, according to UNESCO, officially a Viennese cultural pastime. Walk off your slice of Sachertorte with a self-guided tour of the city’s stunning traditional, Secessionist, and modern architecture, such as the Imperial Palace, the State Opera House, the Kirche am Steinhof, or the Kunsthistorisches Museum, an exercise in ornate geometry.

Great place to have a photo shoot as I had the place nearly all to myself. I was able to snag some great photos of the atrium, and Only 3 other couples came in for photos while I was here.

Vienna's U.N. building is noteworthy both for its architectural and political significance.
A really informative experience with our tour guide Teddy. The Vienna UN building is next to the metro station so it is easy to get to. Lots of souvenirs available and interactive stuff for children. Obviously security is strict but necessary. A very spacious and clean area to look around. Thanks to our knowledgeable guide we came away with a better understanding of the history and purpose of the UN.

Oesterreichisches Nationalbank (Austrian National Bank) is a stolid building designed by a pupil of Otto Wagner (for whom the square where it's located is named), Leopold Bauer. During the four-power occupation of Austria following WW II, the structure served as the headquarters of the US military in this, the American Sector.

Building that shows power of the Austrian empire and their war machinery. Very dominant-looking architecture. Especially the two-headed eagle, that looks simply menacing.
