Vienna

Vienna moves at the speed of its coffee houses: a newspaper, a slice of cake, nobody hurrying you out.

Its palaces have unexpected guests. In 1762 a six-year-old Mozart played for the empress at Schönbrunn, then jumped onto her lap and kissed her. His father wrote home about it.

Trevlo's audio tour of Schönbrunn Palace tells the palace's story room by room. Start when you like and stop for cake in the gardens. Your first tour is free.
