Vienna is green and blooming
Join me on a tour of my favorite green spaces in Vienna’s Old Town. From the magnificent Burggarten gardens to hidden courtyards and the idyllic Stadtpark, I’ll show you Vienna’s most beautiful green oases. My book “Green Lucky Places in Vienna” was published in April 2024, and on this tour, we’ll discover the most beautiful and sometimes well-hidden green oases of the Old Town together. We’ll find relaxation in historical parks and admire lovingly tended gardens in the middle of the densely built-up city.
Along the way, we’ll hear stories of clever emperors who also thought of the people, of city planners and mayors who considered green spaces important, and of Viennese people who care about nature in the city. These green lucky places will also let you breathe a sigh of relief and put a smile on your face.
For more walks and self-guided discovery tours—to vineyards, picnic meadows, and many other natural oases in Vienna—you will find plenty of inspiration in my book “Green Happy Places in Vienna” published by Droste Verlag. Book your tour now and let Vienna’s green paradises enchant you!
