The First Edition of the Vienna Guide has been written and researched by people who live and work in Austria's imperial capital. More than just a tourist guide, it provides a lively and critical assessment of the city's many sights, hotels, restaurants, clubs, bars, and shops. From exploring the city's many museums--from Freud to folklore and fine arts--and imbibing in its legendary coffeehouses (and finding the perfect Sacher torte) to hearing the best that Europe has to offer in classical music and venturing to Salzburg or along the Danube, the Vienna Guide will prove an invaluable companion.
