Very quiet when we visited
Vienna is such a beautiful city. Apart from museums and galleries, there are also fantastic shopping arcades. Streets radiate out from St Stephen’s Cathedral and at the end of each street there is always a glimpse of another beautiful old building. There has been a lot of work going on around Stephensplatz – renovations to the cathedral, laying paving and today planting established deciduous trees along Margaretstrasse.
