    Nice garden with a lot of roses in the city center. Good place to chill out or to have a romantic picnic. But sometimes crowds of people make strong noise and it spoils the perfection of this place.

    I quite enjoyed the walk around the year's end of roses, which peppered the garden with thorny resilience. A military helicopter passed overhead and scattered the sparrows that danced in the fountain.

    Once it was the private garden of Emperor Franz Joseph I., now it is a nice place to relax after sightseeing. If you are a fan of the Empress Sisi, you should not miss the Sisi Monument!

    If you are a fan of the Empress Sisi, you should not miss the Sisi Monument in the Volksgarten. Mozart lovers make pilgrimages to the statue of the musical genius in the Burggarten. Read more

    Ich bin sehr gerne hier, da man schön entspannen kann auf einer der zahlreichen Grasflächen. Es gibt ein, zwei Cafés für den schnellen Durst. Ruhige Atmosphäre und sehr gepflegte Umgebung.
