The Museumsquartier is one of
the ten largest cultural complexes in the world, where baroque
buildings, new architecture, cultural institutions and various
disciplines of art are united.
The Leopold Museum and the MUMOK (Museum of
Modern Art Ludwig Foundation Vienna) are large art museums.
Additional highlights include the TanzQuartier, an
international, state-of-the-art centre for dance, the Architektur
Zentrum Wien, production studios for new media, artist
studios for artists-in-residence, outstanding art and cultural
facilities designed for children, and a variety of other events
and festivals such as the renowned Viennale film festival,
the ImPulsTanz Festival, and many others.
Here's another good idea for
a leisurely afternoon. Musiktank offers a wide selection
of Austrian popular music. You can browse their artist catalogue,
listen to tracks from Austropop-stars like Falco,
Georg Danzer or Wolfgang Ambros or up-to-date electronic productions
with their famous Viennese flavour.
A comfortable lounge invites to linger. You can buy your favourite
tracks and burn your own personal Austrian CD. Nice souvenir,
isn't it?
Winter at the Museumsquartier:
With an Ice Curling Rink,
a play area for children, cool DJ sounds and punch stands,
the Vienna Museums Quarter focuses on a younger and hipper
clientele.
Spittelberg District
Just round the corner there’s Spittelberg. Spittelberg
is a picturesque and romantic part of Vienna with caringly
renovated Biedermeier houses, narrow, plastered alleys and
invites us to discover ancient Vienna!
