Located in the southern part of Central Europe, Austria blends urban cities, alpine meadows, imperial architectural works, and lively culture in one peaceful country. Pay a visit to the world's most liveable city, Vienna, and dive into the iconic jazz scene, admire the works of art at the Belvedere Palace complex, and immerse yourself in the classical music capital that gave us Mozart and Beethoven. Embark on a scenic river cruise through the Strudengau Valley. Strap on your helmets and bike ride along the Danube River and around Melk. Dance your way through the sunny meadows dotted with wildflowers as you step into a scene straight from The Sound of Music, take a leisurely bike ride along the sparkling blue waters of Austria's numerous lakes, or see as they are known there.
