Vienna has much to offer visitors, says tourist board

Vienna is filled with cultural and natural sights

Holidaymakers will find much to see and do in Vienna, according to one expert.

Vienna is a city of many possibilities for holidaymakers, according to the city's tourism organisation.

Angelika Grzebyta, media manager for the Vienna Tourist Board, explained that those visiting the Austrian capital will find a melting pot of old and new architecture and plenty of cultural and natural attractions to enjoy.

Its food and drink is of a particularly high quality, while Christmas can be a great time to visit due to the various markets that take place, she said.

Ms Grzebyta also noted that while Vienna is not a particularly cheap destination, there are many free events and attractions that may be suited to travellers on a budget.

These include the Danube Island Festival, the Vienna Music Festival and the New Year's Eve Trail - and taking out cheap travel insurance may also help to cut the cost of a Vienna holiday.

"In terms of food, Vienna also offers a great variety for the price-conscious eater," the expert remarked.

Vienna was ranked the top city in which to live in Mercer's 2009 Quality of Living survey.
