Things to do in Austria, Austria: The Best Neighborhoods

November 13, 2021 Giuseppe Pratt

As home to majestic mountains, opulent palaces, and high culture, Austria's attractions are classically sumptuous and enduring. But beyond the waltzes, the strudels, the alpine summits, and Habsburg architecture, its modern cities are proof of just how easily Austria combines the contemporary with the historic.

Graben and Kohlmarkt

Reviewed By ParvizM2013 - San Diego, United States

As part of our Vienna city center walk, we spent some time on beautiful Graben Street. It is a must see in Vienna. You see very nice and old buildings with amazing architecture. There are lots of very nice cafes, restaurants, and high end designer shops on Graben street. As expected, the Graben street was very busy and crowded with tourists. There is a lot to see when you are there. You are within few minutes of walking distance to attractions such as Hofburg Palace, Sisi Museum and Kaiser apartments, Stephan Platz, St. Stephen's Cathedral (Stephansdom), Albertina Platz, Vienna State Opera, and the amazing golden Plague Column (Pestsaule). It was a very peasant walk and spent a few hours over there. Go to Graben street and have fun!

Steingasse

Picturesque section of old Salzburg, the street a relic of Roman times, was once a center for tradesmen. Today it has become a refined area of stylish small bars, book and wine stores.

Reviewed By dori_lukey - Singapore, Singapore

A quieter lane in Salzburg if you want to walk on a cobbled pathway dating back to the Roman period. Quite a relaxing and tranquil walk as not many tourists come here and the alley is narrower as compared to other pedestrian pathways in Salzburg. There are also not many shops on both sides of the lane, and you can enjoy a different side to Salzburg than the touristy one.
