Magnificent, magnetic and magical, Vienna beguiles on and all with Old World charm and courtly grace. It is a place where headwaters still bow as if saluting a Habsburg prince and Lipizzaner stallions dance intricate minuets to the strains of Mozart. Vienna doesn't hurry and neither should you, saunter through its stately street and marvel at its Baroque palaces and dream an afternoon away at a cosy Kaffeehaus. This new edition features coverage of the latest local trends and top spots and has a jampacked "Smart Travel Tips A-Z" chapter, plus Great Itineraries, Fodor's Choice, and web addresses. In addition, it lists the latest sights and activities and up-to-date options for hotels, restaurants, shopping and nightlife.
