Vienna is an inspiring multi-cultural city with many historical buildings. Vienna city breaks are perfect any time of the year. Take in the beautiful city covered in crystal white snow in the winter or wander the cobble stone streets and sample the delights of Viennese cuisine and the unique charm of Vienna's coffeehouses in the summer. The historic centre of Vienna with its world-famous sights such as the St. Stephen's Cathedral and the Imperial Palace has been added to the UNESCO's World Cultural Heritage list.

During winter time the Vienna Christmas Market transforms the city into a fest of lights and decorations with the aroma of rich berry punch and freshly cooked gingerbread men filling the air. The market holds up to 150 lavishly decorated stalls each year, attracting families and couples on romantic Christmas breaks.
