What is there to do for fun in Vienna?
Anything that students enjoy doing in the United States they can also enjoy in Vienna, and much more. There is no end to the live performances in the city. Whether you enjoy opera or something more modern, you will find something entertaining. The famous Lippizaner horses are housed in Vienna. True red carpet performances are pricey, but you can watch them do their morning exercises to classical music for a relatively small fee. If you enjoy museums, you can wander through the world famous Kunsthistoriches (Art History), the Belvederes, or the Leopold Museums. Everyone from Klimt to Monet to Renoir to DaVinci are represented within the city. Or, if you’re feeling daring, explore the eerie catacombs under Stephansdom. Vienna is home to many large city parks, as well as the world-renowned giant ferris wheel (Riesenrad). The Danube Island (Donau Insel) has a network of walking paths and gelato shops.
