VIENNA VIDE-ODE TO JOY !
My liking for the city of Vienna a video set to the music of Beethoven’s 9th symphony part of ‘Ode to Joy’ with words by German poet, philosopher, historian, and playwright Friedrich Schiller.
There’s not much else to say just sit back and enjoy a glimpse and taste of the capital of Austria.
The city where Ludwig van Beethoven made his home, in fact many homes some records say over 60!
Vienna and the former Imperial summer palace.
As well as its musical history the city of Vienna is known for its wonderful architecture. From the Baroque right through to the modern of today.

Getting around Vienna is simple. With a really well integrated transport system with day or weekly tickets. Making is so easy to use throughout your stay.
Shopping, food and places to go. The list is really endless. Galleries, museums with international reputations. As are the cafes and restaurants that will lure you in with their wonderful and colourful creations. There world famous chocolate cakes from the Hotel Sacher or the more simple sausage stalls those too have their own fine reputation.
Fresh fruit, fish and food from the central market the Naschmarkt. Where nearby every Saturday is held a giant Flea Market. Here you can find antiques from the city or country and items too from the former Eastern block countries that border Austria. The best and many bargains are to be had, but be there early.
I visit the city every year. And, no matter what time of the year I go, there is always something different to see and do.
If you are looking for a city break you could not choose a better place to start with.
Do try to listen to the music track with your headphones on, it will improve the experience greatly!

We were there December 9th 2019. The recent shootings are so tragic for such a beautiful city. May there soon be peace in Wien.
