What to do in Winter in Austria | Vienna Travel Vlog
It's our second day in Vienna and we woke up to snow! Today we let you decide what we got up to and ended up visiting the Schonbrunn Palace, the State Hall Library, ate sacher torte and wiener schnitzel and went on our first train to Salzburg!

Travel can be so insane sometimes! One day it's clear blue skies and the next day a bucket of snow falls down. Have you had a similar experience? If you are new here hit subscribe --> kzread.info/dron/3CxEBKx2l38nl1_SFsC2gg.html

Flying The Nest Yes actually. Flew to the Bahamas when I was a teen, beautiful blue skies one day .. a few days later, hurricane Wilma hit! Broke our family video camera whilst trying to film the storm outside. Oops!

vienna fun facts: cafes are such a big part of viennas culture, that starbucks cannot compete. the würstelstände are a bi part of vienna, and a place where rich people from the highest class come to eat, just like people from lower classes vienna is the city with the highest quality of live, and the city most worth living in . it's got that title like eight times in a row, was place 2 in 2017 and n´is place 1 again in 2018.
What a dreamy, beautiful country.. this is straight up my aisle, all snow and picturesque scenery...

More places/things to see: - Gustav Klimt's most famous painting in the Belvedere. - A huge mural spanning several walls by Klimt in the Secession Building. - Empress Sisi's apartments. - A butterfly house in a beautiful Secessionist style ex-greenhouse (near the library) - Peek into the stables in the Hofburg area. - A massive collection of armoury in the Neue Burg. - A fascinating display of items collected by the Hapsburg dynasty in the Kunsthistorisches museum. ... etc Plus, if you like visiting cemeteries, you'll like the Kaisergruft under the Capuchin Church, which has 150 or so tombs and coffins of the Hapsburg/Hapsburg-Lorraine dynasty members.

4:26 Charles Church. The only one in Vienna u have to pay a fee to enter - in exchange they left an elevator there from renovations and u can go up and see the frescos closeup. 6:06 The filling of the Sachertorte is an apricote jam. 6:45 To each his own - I personally rather go to Oberlaa, like 2min away. I don like too touristy places^^ Now I really like ur vid style, very natural in front of the cam - keep the vids coming! On major attractions in Vienna u have missed: Belvedere, State Opera, Parliament, Hundertwasserhouse, Prater (Ferrys Wheel), modern Vienna (Danube Tower), Heurigen.

"Hidden Gems" is really the best description for vienna. I've been living here my entire life and I still find beautiful places I didn't know about every once in a while. There are a couple old cities around europe where this applies. You could spend months there and still find a hidden spot in areas you thought you'd know by now.

I couldn’t go onto the library at the Leopoldskronstraße palace in Salzburg because there were meetings there for two days so I think I will need to try and visit that library instead!
you rated the sacher torte just 5/10 because actually you haven't tried the original one. the original recipe is a family secret and also just the sacher grandmother knows it.. it is passed down just to one daughter so the tradition is kepping in tact. you could just get the original taste of a sacher torte if you would be invited to a birthdayparty of a family sachers member cheers

In the Sacher torte there is apricot
So the church you saw was actually the Karlskirche (or St. Charles Church). At the Cafe Sacher the fruity Jam in the middle is apricot (not orange) :)
Sachertorte is so sweet for me too.. It's with apricot jam.. Still love vienna though...

Forget Starbucks in Vienna because the Austrians make the best coffee and pastries. The pastries melt in one's mouth.
hey guys.. sorry if i missed it... were you guys travelling on jan/feb (just judging on the upload date)? thanks everyonee
Hehe first of all thanks for including my comment in the video 😅 (I'm creatingthoughts on instagram 😊) and yes, the church is called Karlskirche, but I think you already know 🙂 During the warmer seasons, there is this wonderful garden behind Schloss Schönbrunn and also the biggest zoo in Austria, Tiergarten Schönbrunn. These places are absolutely worth a visit too :) It's so nice to see the places I visit quite often in your video, like Schloss Schönbrunn or the train station 😅 and I also have to go by the train you took everytime I travel to Vienna (random fact: it is the best and fastest train in Austria and these RailJet-trains are also made in Vienna 🤗)

If you are staying in urban areas any shoe with a thick sole will do. It might sound weird but when it is snowing like that it does not feel overly cold, on the contrary dry and cold climate is really unpleasant.

About the Sacher Torte, They think a lot of themselves and also market and price this Cake like it's the holy grail. But it's not the best "Sacher Torte" in Vienna, there are a lot of places with a better Version of this cake, like the Bräunerhof, Café Ritter or the Café Sperl . Me, most friends of mine and part of my Family thinks it is to dry and doesn't have enough Marmelade. So if you come to Vienna Check out one or more of the Cafés mentioned above, they not only have better cakes and more variety (in my opinion) but the experience will also be more authentic and also cheaper. Another tip is the Café Vollpension where several granny's bake some of the most mouth watering and delicious cake I have ever eaten. Have fun visiting, and have a nice Melange!
Its the karlskirche (karlschurch)
