PALOMA VILLAVERDE DE RICO
AUSTRIA
This is the country that gave the world
Mozart, Klimt, and Freud, as well as
the Viennesse waltz and the Von Trapp
family story. It is also one of the most
alluring countries to travel to in Europe,
home to one of the world's largest ice
caves, eisriesenwelt, located in Werfen
about 20 miles from the baroque city of
Salzburg. The latter has its own treasure
in its Old Town, designated a UNESCO
World Heritage site. And if you head to
Linz, about an hour's drive from Salzburg,
you can hop on one of Europe's steepest
traction railways and ride it to the top of
the 1,700-ft.-high Postlingberg hill, from
where you'll have sweeping views of the
Alps. And then there's the awe-inspiring
Melk abbey, a Benedictine abbey offering
a bird's-eye view of the Danube River. And
a sail from Melk on that renowned river,
passing through the breathtaking Wachau
Valley-blanketed in vineyards and apricot
orchards, as well as picturesque towns-
brings you to Austria's masterpiece,
Vienna. Cozy wine bars, notable coffee
houses, imperial sights, a collection of
museums, Art Nouveau works of art and
one of the world's most famous Ferris
wheels-that is Vienna. In one day you can
take a stroll to the illustrious Belvedere
to view Klimt's works of art, then head
over to the naschmarkt for a bite to eat.
This is a city made for pedestrians, so
after lunch you can use your two feet to
head over to St. Stephen's Cathedral,
site of both Mozart's wedding and his
funeral. And if Mozart is your muse, walk
around the corner from the cathedral to
visit the Mozarthaus, where this master
resided from 1784 to 1787. Of course,
this city is also home to the magnificent
Schonbrunn Palace; the world's oldest
zoo; and MuseumsQuartier, one of the
world's 10 largest museum complexes. Do
check out the rooftop bar at The RitzCarlton, Vienna-those views can't be

beat-and when you are ready to call it a
night head down to one of the guestrooms
of what was once a 19th century palace,
and you'll find all the luxuries you'll need
for a good night's rest. ◆
