I loved Vienna. It was regal and clean and impressive, the people were helpful and kind. It was cold (of course) but absolutely beautiful. And we got blue skies for the first time this year!
This is the Belvedere palace, which houses Austrian art dating from the middle ages to present day. At the heart of the exhibition is the larges Gustav Klimt collection, including "The Kiss."
The Belvedere does "command a grand view."

On our last morning in Vienna we went to a mile-long open air market. We bought prosciutto and sunflower seed bread and dried apricots and falafel and fruit for our overnight train ride to Zurich. The last thing we saw in Vienna was the Schönbrunn Palace.

It is said to marvel Versailles. Almost.
