A bevy of universities give Austria's second-largest city its lively pace. Baroque palaces are a pleasant contrast with 16th-century courtyards and provocative modern buildings. The Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, teems with fine architecture, including the Burg castle complex, with its Gothic double staircase, and the graceful Uhrturm clock tower. A funicular takes visitors up the dramatic bluff. The River Mur dashes through the city, and thermal springs dot the surrounding countryside.

A Craft Beer Pub in the centre of Graz with a brilliant selection of craft beers and with relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We are selling craft beer from around the world as well as our locally brewed beer, that we (One Eyed Jock Brewery) produce ourselves!
Found this pub by accident, great accident, great craft beer, excellent service and funny and helpful staff. Definitely recommend.

In the middle of the Altstadt yu can find this beautiful square. If you go there during the winter, you can even find some remaining parts of Christmas Market.

If in Graz this is a must, weather it is day or night it is well worth the effort of a walk to the top, the history is fascinating and the views over the city amazing.

The world's largest preserved historical armoury displays some 32,000 objects from the 15th to 18th century.
We came in winter when access is by guided tour only. Luckily we happened to be there just in time for one. It was fantastic. Photos can't do the armoury justice. There is so much to be said about being there amounts the pieces, the smells of oils used to clean them. Amazing. Our guide was fantastic and very patient as we all tried on select samples of chain mail and wielded some replica swords. A must for anyone visiting Graz.

You really cannot miss the view from the top of the building. You can admire the old clock and the old city center for free! Add a glass of Gluhwein and you have a lovely time.

We really enjoyed the clock tower and surroundings on a sunny day. We have a small toddler; we took the lift to the top. Great view, green, quite surroundings. The coffee shop next to the clock tower is packed, many people enjoying their wine and beer. Highly recommended.

An alley with several shops and a former area known for breweries
Nice shopping street. There are also restaurants and cafes. Really crowded, especially during Christmas time. But really worth a visit!

There were many tourists and restaurants nearby in that beautiful and historical place. Since I was not very hungry when I arrived, I chose a snack bar to had a hot dog. Several of its regular customers were drinking beer at Stand 12. When I was trying to have an order at that booth, the enthusiastic customers helped call the boss/staff. The people in that booth greeted the guests cheerfully and enthusiastically, and they ate, drank, talked and cheered with them. Although I was not drinking beer, I was infected. Then, they began to talk to me and we had quite some laughters. That was a very good lunch, not only because of the delicious hot dog, but also because of the wonderful and memorable "only here only now" experience!
