Downtown Vienna is not all palaces, museums, monumental building, and high end shopping, there are quite a lot of those though.
We enjoyed having coffee and people watching in the park, the rose gardens in Volkspark, and a couple of amazing churches.
Odd things too like the small dog parks, Austrian students lounging in their Palestinian protest encampment.
One fun things we did was go to the Albertina Museum to see the Gothic Modern exhibit explaining how modern painting was influenced by studies of Gothic art. The colorful paintings cheered me up after a day of wandering among So many large gray buildings.
We found our way to Freud’s house. We thought we should visit since we were in the neighborhood.
Our last morning we stayed in our Vienna neighborhood taking some photos of the Nachtmarket and visiting the Succession exhibits.
As we left on the train we saw that there are some very modern buildings in Vienna.
