Schönbrunn Palace, Vienna.

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

Schönbrunn Palace is a huge Baroque complex, which was built in 1713 and used to be a summer residence for the House of Habsburg. As we stayed in a hotel near Belvedere, the cheapest and easiest way to get there was to take Uber, the trip cost only 9 euro. We were surprised that there was no need to stay in a line, it was possible to buy tickets in iboxes.

So we took audioguides and went to explore the palace. It includes 1441 rooms, some of them are opened to the public. You can see where Franz Josef ( Emperor of Austria) and his wife Sisi lived and worked. You can also visit the room, where Mozart, as a kid, was playing the violin.

The complex consists of the garden, a couple of museums, the oldest zoo in Europe, the palm house and the fountain of Neptune.

If you climb up the hill, you can drink some coffee in a lovely cafe inside the triumphal arch.

And of course, it's the best place to enjoy the magnificent view.
