#citystroll Vienna is a city that truly exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was struck by its elegant mix of imperial history and modern sophistication. I spent a lot of time wandering the streets, and every corner seemed to have a palace, museum, or café that was worth exploring. The first stop had to be Schönbrunn Palace, an absolute must-see! The entrance fee was around €24, and the grandeur of the rooms and the beauty of the gardens made it worth every penny. 🌸 Next, I visited the Kunsthistorisches Museum (about €18 for entry), which houses an incredible art collection. If you’re an art lover, this place is heaven. Don’t miss St. Stephen’s Cathedral either—its Gothic architecture is breathtaking, and climbing to the top gives you a stunning view of the city. 🏰 Vienna is also famous for its coffee culture, so I couldn’t resist trying a slice of Sachertorte at Café Sacher—it was delicious! For music lovers, Vienna’s classical scene is unmatched, with concerts happening every night. I even caught a performance at the Vienna State Opera. 🎶 Between the art, history, and the delicious food, Vienna has left me with some incredible memories. I can’t wait to go back! #ViennaVibes #ImperialCity #SchönbrunnPalace #ArtAndCulture #VienneseCoffee #ExploreAustria

In August 2024, I went on a trip to Europe, including Vienna, Austria✈︎ Among them, I will introduce in detail the cafe that is said to be the most beautiful in the world, including the budget☕️ This cafe is located inside the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, so it can only be used by museum visitors☺︎ =================== Access🚌💭 The Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna is easily accessible by public transportation.

There are too many museums in Vienna, so I did some research online before going there. Basically, they all recommended that if you must go to one, you should go to the Kunsthistorisches Museum‼ ️ The ticket price for student ID is 18 euros, and you can rent an audio guide. There are 3 floors inside. It is recommended to go down from the highest point. There are not many things in the special exhibition area, so you can finish it quickly~ Then there is the floor where paintings are displayed. There are so many paintings that you can really spend 2-3 hours to watch them slowly Then there are some royal collections and exhibits, each of which is super exquisite! It makes people get very close to the window to take a closer look at the workmanship inside, which cannot be captured with a camera! There is also an ancient Egyptian area in the exhibition area, and there are many collections~ Only one afternoon was arranged that day, about 4 hours, and my feet were really sore at the end of the tour😵💫 Fortunately, there are some chairs along the way to sit and rest~ In short, it is a museum that is worth buying a ticket to visit~ #Vienna #Art History Museum

At the highlights of the museum, together with the art history made a choice in many museums in Vienna, we have locked in the Museum of Art History. One reason is that there are many things to look at. When the two protagonists in "Before Sunrise" swam around Vienna, they passed through here, but they did not go in. The Habsburg dynasty had been in power for more than 600 years in Vienna. On both sides of the Ring Road, the magnificent architecture stands out, and it still shows the glory of the family. The Vienna Museum of Art History is one of the many magnificent buildings, and the other is a palace-like building. It is the Vienna Museum of Natural History, both of which are Vienna's proud Museums. Into the magnificent building, start a journey of time and space. From the museums of the city of Alexandria in the third century BC to the backyards of the Roman aristocracy more than a hundred years later, precious artifacts and works of art have always been good for the royal family. Exciting Egyptian and Oriental art, exquisite ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, sculptural and decorative art showing the full picture of the Renaissance and Baroque art, Drer, Rembrandt, Titian, Tintoretto, Carava The outstanding paintings of masters such as Joe and Bruegel, the Vienna Museum of Art History is like a Noahs Ark full of art treasures.

The centuries-old Viennese Art History Museum has a magnificent Renaissance faade and a majestic interior that cleverly uses a variety of marbles. In addition to its rich collections, his exterior and interior are also well-known elements. Step up the grand staircase leading to the gate and look up at the magnificent walls. This is a museum that has been completed for 20 years and is full of luxury. Royal style. When you see the Egyptian Treasure Hall with ancient Egyptian stone columns and the classical treasure hall that recreates the architectural decoration of the Roman Empire, you will be impressed by its solemn and exquisite design.

How to visit the Art History Museum, one of the four major museums in the world? The Museum of Art History houses the collection of European treasures from the Habsburg dynasty for centuries: 0.5: Vienna Sculpture and Art Deco Treasures, Egyptian/Oriental Art Collection, Greece/Rome Classical Art Collection 1st Floor: Dutch/German Painting Museum, Italian/Spanish/French Painting Gallery, Special Exhibition Hall 2: Coin Collection Recommended 1st floor painting gallery, And the 0.5-storey treasure of the town hall "Golden Salt Pot" Painting Hall: Drer, Raphael, Rembrandt, Rubens, Titian, Velzquez and Vimer The paintings, as well as the world's most extensive collection of Bruegel's works; Art Treasures: There are rare works of art from a foreign country, the most dazzling of which is Benvenuto Cellini's "Beauty" Gold salt shaker.

If you are a deep museum enthusiast, it is recommended to arrange at least 5-6 hours, remember to bring dry food and water! Transportation: Take the U3 line to the Volkstheater stop

#EuropeanTravel 🎨 Must-visit Museums & Palaces in Vienna Honest Reviews of Places I've Actually Visited Living up on the name of the 'City of Classics', Vienna Even each palace and museum is a work of art in itself. If you're having trouble deciding on the best ones, I recommend going in this order that I personally visited! 1️⃣ Schönbrunn Palace 📍Vienna's must-see #1! The palace itself is a huge time capsule This place, which used to be the imperial summer residence, is a historical experience that goes beyond a simple 'palace tour' with all five senses. Not only the gorgeous Baroque interior, but also the huge garden, maze, and hilltop observation deck— I recommend enjoying it leisurely as a half-day course! 🎧 An audio guide is included, so you can follow the lives of Empress Maria Theresa and Emperor Franz Joseph. • ⏰ Operating hours: 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM daily • 💸 Grand Tour: Approximately €29 (40 rooms to see) • 💸 Imperial Tour: Approximately €22 (22 rooms to see) • Free admission to the garden, separate tickets required for the maze/observation deck • 🎟️ It’s better to book online than on-site to reduce waiting time! “The palace is a palace, but I loved the time I spent walking in the garden while feeling the breeze. Even the time I took a break with an ice cream was like a movie.” 2️⃣ Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien (Vienna Kunsthistorisches Museum) 📍A must-visit for European painting lovers! If Schönbrunn Palace was the art of ‘space,’ The Vienna Kunsthistorisches Museum is the main character in the artwork itself. This is a place where you can see the masters of European painting at a glance, including Velazquez, Rubens, Rembrandt, and Bruegel. And the real jackpot is… The building itself is museum-quality. The ceiling painting in the stairwell and the café under the dome are breathtakingly beautiful. • ⏰ Opening hours: 10:00-18:00 every day (until 21:00 on Thursdays) • 💸 Admission: Approximately €21 • 🎧 Audio guide separate (€5), but you can fully appreciate it with just the explanation panels • 🎨 The Bruegel Collection is the world's largest! (Must see) “Even my friends who weren't very interested in art were speechless when they came out here. It's a museum where you can just 'be speechless and admire'.” 3️⃣ Belvedere Palace 📍Where Klimt's 'Kiss' is located! The moment you meet the love in the painting in person This palace, divided into the upper and lower palaces, was built as a summer villa for Prince Eugene of Austria. The most famous thing is Klimt's masterpiece 'The Kiss' in the lower palace. Even the road to see the painting was full of romance. The garden in front of the palace is also really pretty, so there are many good photo spots, and the exhibition composition is also a natural blend of modern and classic. • ⏰ Operating hours: Every day 10:00-18:00 • 💸 Admission: • Upper Belvedere (lower palace): Approximately €17.70 • Lower Belvedere (upper palace): Separate depending on the exhibition, usually €15-17 • Combo ticket (upper palace + lower palace): Approximately €24 • 🖼️ Photography is OK with 'The Kiss'! "When I saw Klimt's gold right in front of me, I couldn't help but cry because the delicacy and emotion were conveyed." 4️⃣ Sisi Museum & Hofburg Wien 📍Getting to know Empress Sisi deepens the romance of Vienna The Sisi Museum, located in a part of the Hofburg Palace, is an exhibition that covers the life of the legendary Empress Elisabeth (Sisi) of Austria. She was loved by many for her gorgeous appearance and free spirit, but on the other hand, it contains her inner self that suffered from loneliness and norms. From the dresses she actually wore, to her diary, hairbrush, and even body management tools (!)— This exhibition clearly portrayed the character of ‘Sisi’ that I was curious about. The tour of the imperial apartment next to the museum is also very interesting. • ⏰ Opening hours: 9:00-17:30 every day • 💸 Admission: Approximately €17.50 (audio guide included) • Most of the interior is prohibited from photography (a bit disappointing, but it makes you focus instead) “Loneliness hidden behind the splendor. After learning about Empress Sisi, the palaces of Vienna felt sadder.” ✨ Final recommended points 🎟️ If you have time, I recommend taking a leisurely look at one a day 🕰️ It is much easier to adjust the route to the palace in the morning and the museum in the afternoon 📸 Good places to take pictures are the Belvedere Garden / Kunsthistorisches Staircase / Schönbrunn Front Yard

Vienna [Kunsthistorisches Museum] The Kunsthistorisches Museum was built to house the Habsburg family's art collection. Emperor Franz Joseph ordered its construction to gather and display the royal collection, which had been scattered across various locations. The museum opened in 1891 near the Hofburg Imperial Palace, the emperor's residence at the time. It remains Austria's largest museum today. The interior boasts a luxurious architectural style, with an iconic octagonal dome and opulent decorations that impress visitors right from the entrance. Here, you can admire thousands of artworks collected over centuries by the Habsburg dynasty, ranging from ancient Greek and Roman times to the late Baroque period. Among the most famous pieces are Pieter Bruegel's masterpieces such as "The Tower of Babel," "The Peasant Wedding," and "Hunters in the Snow." Additionally, the museum features 'Café KHM,' often referred to as the most beautiful café in the world. Unfortunately, it was crowded, so I couldn't visit. Kunsthistorisches Museum Maria-Theresien-Platz, 1010 Wien, Austria

Walking through Vienna feels like moving inside a perfectly composed symphony. From imperial palaces to cozy cafés and grand concert halls, the city blends royal history with modern elegance.

Do not miss a coffee break at a traditional Viennese café, where a slice of Sachertorte and a melange await. In the afternoon, head to Naschmarkt for local flavors or relax at Stadtpark, where Strauss stands in gold. Tips: • Book a concert ticket in advance, especially for Mozart or Strauss evenings • Try the Vienna Pass if you want to visit multiple landmarks • Comfortable shoes are a must, Vienna is best enjoyed on foot • Trams are perfect for sightseeing along the city’s historical axis #vienna

#MayGoodPlaces2025 Walking along Maria-Theresien-Platz in the center of Vienna, the first thing that attracts you is not any specific exhibits, but two majestic and magnificent museum buildings that echo each other - the Kunsthistorisches Museum and the Naturhistorisches Museum. Although we were not arranged to visit the museum this time, just stopping outside to admire it was already a profound experience of visual and historical interweaving. The two buildings stand on both sides of the square in an almost completely symmetrical posture, showing the glory of the Habsburg dynasty in the 19th century in the neo-Renaissance style. The statue of Queen Maria Theresa sits in front of the museum, looking majestic and adding a sense of history to the entire space. Whether it is the carvings on the walls, the structure of the dome, or the proportions of the arches and colonnades, they all demonstrate the ultimate classical aesthetics and imperial style. Strolling in the center of the square, you will be surrounded by lush greenery and blooming flowers. The music of street performers and the laughter of children make this seemingly solemn space more friendly and lively. Even if you just stop for a short while outside, you can still feel the charm of Vienna as the "City of Art and History". Although I was unable to go inside to explore the world-class collections and exhibitions, this external observation and experience has planted the seeds of anticipation for a future visit. For travelers who love architecture, history and cultural atmosphere, these two museums are definitely worth visiting even if you just "see them from the outside".

On the left side of the lobby, you'll find a cloakroom and lockers for visitors to store their belongings, as large backpacks are not allowed inside the museum. The lockers operate with €1 or €2 coins, which are refunded when you retrieve your items after your visit. The museum houses numerous galleries showcasing a wide variety of exhibits, including sculptures, crafts, historical artifacts, and paintings. Each gallery is thoughtfully designed with unique interior decor and lighting to match its theme. The exhibits are so captivating that I lost count of how many galleries I explored. Among them, the exquisite craftsmanship of the artifacts left the deepest impression on me. It's astonishing to see such intricate and aesthetically pleasing designs created during times when technology and tools were far less advanced. Planning to spend a few hours exploring, I brought a bottle of water with me. However, shortly after entering the museum, a staff member politely informed me that water bottles are not allowed inside. Instead of asking me to leave or discard the bottle, the staff member kindly provided a paper bag for me to store the bottle, allowing me to continue my visit without any inconvenience. This thoughtful and considerate approach truly impressed me! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Adult ticket: €21 (Please check the official website for the latest ticket information. I used the Vienna Flexi Pass for my visit.)

Vienna is a city that invites you to slow down and savor every layer — from imperial palaces to hidden cocktail bars. I began my journey at St. Stephen’s Cathedral, standing beneath its soaring spires before climbing the south tower for a sweeping view over Vienna’s rooftops. The streets led me to Naschmarkt, where spices, cheeses, and pastries created a vibrant sensory feast. Afternoons were for grandeur: the golden halls of Schönbrunn Palace, the shimmering masterpiece of Klimt’s The Kiss at Belvedere Museum, and the timeless art of Kunsthistorisches Museum. I stayed at Novotel Wien City, a comfortable base perfectly placed between the Danube and Vienna’s Old Town. Evenings came alive with crisp schnitzel at Figlmüller, delicate pastries at Café Demel, and a memorable Michelin dinner at Zum weißen Rauchfangkehrer. As dusk fell, I wandered to Prater Park — the nostalgic charm of its Ferris wheel lighting up the skyline — and later sipped cocktails in the buzzing Bermuda Triangle. My tip? Don’t rush Vienna. Walk its cobbled streets, linger in its coffee houses, and let music drift you from square to square. Vienna rewards the traveler who explores with curiosity and appetite. #ViennaTravel #CityItinerary #EuropeTrip #HiddenGems #CulturalJourney #TripMoments #SchnitzelLovers #MichelinDining #HistoricLandmarks #ViennaNightlife #TravelTips #BermudaTriangle #Naschmarkt #ViennaMuseums

Vienna Airport was a very busy place for travelers. There were two immigration questions, but I passed without a hitch! Vienna's 4-day tour with more places to see than expected. It was a place you should have stayed for 2 weeks. There were many places to see one by one, such as opera performances, concerts, and cathedral masses. St. Stephen's Cathedral Sunday 10:15 AM mass. It was in German, so I couldn't read the bulletin ㅠ But if you're a Catholic, the basic flow of the mass is the same. Since it was Easter, the organ performance felt even more magnificent. I was lucky enough to sit in the box seats on the 2nd floor of the National Opera House, so I was deeply moved because I could see it better than I thought. There was an intermission of about 20 minutes in the middle of the 3-hour tour, so the time passed quickly. Tips before it passes: If you search for the content of the performance and learn about the story, you can understand the flow even if you don't know German well. English subtitles are provided on the monitor. If the timing is right, you can see famous performances, so it's essential to check the main website. If you search for the opera house night spots, only one place will come up, so it's easy to find because there are a lot of people gathered in the best place. On a nice day, the Belvedere Palace is great for sitting on the stairs and having a cup of tea. It's good to take a short break and then move on. And while looking around the Pandorf Outlet, you can go to the center. Since there is a cafe license, you can have coffee and cake without waiting! When you drink coffee, water is always provided, so it is good to wash it down! On the last morning, I saw the sun rise from the rooftop of the Korean guesthouse and thought Vienna is a wonderful place. It is a beautiful city!

This museum is just a 5-minute U-Bahn ride from the center of Vienna!
