Christmas / New Year’s Eve / Epiphany in Vienna
Vienna
Vienna is the capital of Austria and it is the cultural and economic heart of the country. Vienna has played a central role in the European political scene since 1804, when it became the capital of the Austrian Empire until the end of the First World War that found the Empire of the Austro-Hungarian Empire defeated and split. Today, Vienna may not have the political glory of the past, but it is one of the best cities on the planet to live in, something that many organizations have recognized in various surveys in recent years. Visually, Vienna will amaze you with the ambiance of the glorious past, the impressive sights and splendid flavors such as the Schnitzel trademark. Prices are reasonably priced and probably cheap compared to other European capitals.
