1. St. Stephen's Cathedral

4.5 based on 23,708 reviews
Austria's most prominent national symbol, this magnificent cathedral is known for its intricately tiled roof and its nearly 500-foot-tall South Tower, which provides amazing views of the entire city.

The cathedral is beautiful - very grand and ornate with beautiful mouldings and gothic architecture. The detail in the carvings was extraordinary and the paintings were very beautiful. There are certain parts of the cathedral which are blocked off (the entire mid and front section) which does make the back part quite cramped with lots of people taking photographs. Be patient and you will get your turn! I’d recommend the catacombs tour (6 Euros each) - it was very interesting and the tour guide was extremely knowledgable, offering the tour in both German and English.

This bucolic city park, the highlight of which is a gilded statue of musician Johann Strauss in its center, was established in 1862.

The Stadtpark is a large public park that’s divided into two sections by the River Vienna. The river has been engineered into what looks a little like a canal with elegant bridges over the river. Scattered throughout the park are statues of famous Viennese artists, writers, and composers, including Hans Canon, Emil Jakob Schindler, Johann Strauss Jr, Franz Schubert, and Anton Bruckner. The most famous of which is probably the golden statue of Johann Strauss Jr. There’s also a small lake where there’s a colony of ducks. The park is a lovely green area and a great place for a stroll.

Reviewed By TsarShishman - Sofia, Bulgaria
An unique place where some of the most influential people in the world were buried - musicians, politicians, painters, artists, philanthropist, scientists, engineers and so on... You can spend the whole day in this marvellous place watching the beautiful monuments and learning more with the audioguide.

As part of our Vienna city center walk, we spent some time on beautiful Graben Street. It is a must see in Vienna. You see very nice and old buildings with amazing architecture. There are lots of very nice cafes, restaurants, and high end designer shops on Graben street. As expected, the Graben street was very busy and crowded with tourists. There is a lot to see when you are there. You are within few minutes of walking distance to attractions such as Hofburg Palace, Sisi Museum and Kaiser apartments, Stephan Platz, St. Stephen's Cathedral (Stephansdom), Albertina Platz, Vienna State Opera, and the amazing golden Plague Column (Pestsaule). It was a very peasant walk and spent a few hours over there. Go to Graben street and have fun!
6. Kirche am Steinhof

Reviewed By Gulliver07
The setting is in the middle of a beautiful recreation area of meadows and forest. It is easily reached from downtown via public transport. It is definitely worth a visit for its architecture, the splendid restoration that used real gold plating on its cupola, the beautiful stained-glass windows as well as its fascinating history. I frequently visit Vienna and always make a visit to the Kirche am Stainhof. Take a guided tour by all means, but if you only speak English, make sure your guide is aware of it.
