    Beautiful palace with fountains and garden in front of it. Baroque architecture masterpiece, it reminds me french Versailles and russian Peterhof. Check the gallery inside, it's amazing too.

    Klimt, Rodin, Van Gogh. This place doesn't have too many famous pictures but it has some so definitely worth to visit by people who love art. The park between the upper and the lower buildings is nice

    One of the best museums in the world as extravagant as Chateau de Versailles but with a beautiful, rich collection of Klimt. Current graphic design exhibition of Hans Bischoffhaussen is excellent.

    Nice place if you ve never visit Saint Petersburg's Peterhov in Russia. The fans of classic art would love it! For the impressionists - Albertina is much better. Gustav Klimt with "lovers" is amazing!

    This is such a beautiful place. For the Upper Belvedere at least consider 3 hours to enjoy it properly. Close at 9 pm on Friday.

    Right now, Ai Weiwei is showing off his excellent artistry in and around the small pond. Not sure what's inside, so will rate the gardens as a thumbs across.

    An absolute joy to go to. You'd need a full day - remember that there's upper and lower levels and tickets need to be purchased for both.

    Entrance is free under the age of 19, otherwise its 25€ for an adult. But totally worth it, amazing paintings and a good café it has.

    The ticket have time period. If you are too early just try go agead and queue sometimes they will just let you in even you are early. Go early so you can visit the garden. Too late too dark in winter

    I've stood for like half an hour staring at Klimt's "Kiss". All the collection of art gathered in this place impresses so much. And that fascinating view to Belvedere Garden from museum's windows!

    Don't miss Emil Nolde's paintings in Lower Belvedere! A must see! Don't buy a combined ticket! If one day enough for you to see Klimt's & Nolde's masterpieces simultaneously, go shopping instead.

    Free storage lockers (key, deposit 1€) by the toilets in basement. For first (secession) and second floor (Impressionism, realism, modern art) you need at least 1,5h.
