Ringstrasse: Viennese Boulevard
In the mid-19th century the "Ringstrasse" was built, encircling the Inner City of Vienna. Along the ring you find many major sights of Vienna, like the Hofburg (Imperial Palace), the Burgtheater, the Parliament, the City park and the Museums of Fine Arts and Natural History, to name but a few. It is sensible to use the streetcar lines 1 or 2 to get a first impression of the "Ring".

    It was designed and built by Friedrich von Schmidt, who had also been the architect of the Cathedral of Cologne. The city hall is the most important secular building in the neo-Gothic style in the city and was built between 1872 and 1883.

    Ringstrasse: The Glory of an Imperial Park
    One of the most enjoyable parks discovered while strolling, was Rathaus Park. Though its known to be a bit worrisome at night, a daytime walk through here is a site to see.

    The architecture that surround it are remarkable when viewed from its impeccable landscaped ground

    Many hotels and pensions a short walk from here.

    Ringstrasse: Stadtpark
    Opened in 1862 & deemed to be the loveliest park in the city, STADTPARK was the brainchild of painter Joseph Selleny.

    At the park, you'll find many commemorative monuments & statues, some of the more famous ones include that of Franz Schubert & Johann Strauss Junior. Both were made by Edmund Hellmer.

    The KURSALON - a massive pavilion built by Johann Graben is a kind of homage to Viennese Waltz. Here, many waltz competition were held.
