Throughout the country are glorious architectural reminders of the once-powerful Hapsburgs, who dominated central Europe for seven centuries. Nowhere is the legacy more evident than in the capital, Vienna, with its ornate Opera House and the former imperial residence of the Hofburg. Austrias other cities are similarly infused with a historical magic, notably Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart, with stunning Baroque churches set before a backdrop of snow-covered peaks, and Innsbruck, in the centre of the Austrian Alps. But Austria is also a hothouse of striking contemporary architecture, reflecting a modern country at the forefront of engineering, invention and design, and whose modern, efficient social system ensures a high quality of living for most of its residents. Austria has a justifiable reputation for music, literature and the arts, but also boasts a gourmet culture. The legendary Gemütlichkeit a relaxed enjoyment of life is in evidence in the cafes, where the art of coffee-drinking has been raised to a high art, and the many Heurigen , where the latest vintages are accompanied by vast quantities of food. Nightlife is versatile, offering laid-back taverns, beer gardens and excellent après-ski, as well as trendy clubs and dance venues packed to the small hours. Attractions MuseumsQuartier Wien Vienna has built a museum quarter that is one of the ten largest cultural districts in the world. A decade in the construction, at a cost of two billion shillings, it is Austria's bid to outdo the giant art monoliths in the USA, with the distinct advantage of featuring beautiful old architecture. Kunsthistorisches Museum Sprawling through a grand 19th-century edifice, two palaces and a whole set of little museums, Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum has few rivals. It houses the core collection of the Hapsburg dynasty which ruled central Europe from Vienna for nearly four centuries (1588-1918). Kitzbhel Alps Kitzbhel is still a relatively pleasant location amongst havens of mass tourism like Mayrhofen or revellers' paradise Soelden. The resort itself has only 50km of pistes, but you can have access to the pistes of Kirchberg as well with a combined regional lift pass. Belvedere Gallery Prince Eugene of Savoy's 18th-century summer palace is a masterpiece of Baroque architecture, surrounded by formal gardens. Now the Belvedere Gallery, it is crammed with art treasures dating from the Middle Ages to the present day. Raphael, Rubens and Rembrandt Collection One of the most important art collections in the world, the Liechtenstein Princely Collection makes its grand public debut at the unveiling of Vienna's majestic Liechtenstein Museum in March 2004. Vienna State Opera The Vienna State Opera is one of the great opera houses of the world. With such famous names attached to its history as Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss, Bruno Walter, Clemens Kraus and Karl Bhm, there can be little wonder that it is so revered. Since the war Karajan, Maazel, Abbado and, since 2002, Seiji Ozawa have all had periods (however turbulent) as music director. Spanish Riding School - Lipizzaner Stallions A perfect pas de deux in one of the most wonderful ballroom-like buildings of Vienna? Before you try it yourself at one of the city's numerous balls, let the famed Lipizzaner stallions show you how it's done. Obertauern Resort Obertauern is one of Austria's most popular resorts, regularly attracting national and international celebrities. Salzburg Residenz This fine Baroque palace in the heart of Salzburg's Old Town is the historic home of the city's ruling prince-bishops. The magnificent State Rooms and the Gallery, which houses works by Rembrandt and Rubens, are open to the public. Vienna Running for Visitors This guided run through the beautiful gardens of Vienna is held every Tuesday and Thursday and lasts for about 1 1/2 hours. It is designed to meet the needs of beginners as well as more advanced runners, with plenty of rests in-between, attracting tourists as well locals. The runners leave from the Tourist Info office near the Albertina Museum.
