Extractions: Self -drive Holidays in Austria East for the Independent Motorist. Eastern Austria contains a gorgeous mixture of scenery and places to visit. The fertile plain of the Danube provides wonderful opportunities for cycling, walking and nature-watching among timeless villages and lush farmland. Here are the great cities of Linz and especially Vienna, one of the great cultural and commercial centres of Europe, rich in history, architecture, and buzzing with life. Away from the river plain the land rises gently towards the Eastern Alps before they sink in the far east to the strange and atmospheric wetlands bordering Hungary. In the south and west is the majestic and relatively undeveloped Alpine scenery of Styria. Go straight to the Holiday Planner Bad Ischl Burgenland Durnstein Eisenstadt ... Ybbstal Vienna is one of the great cities of Europe, the crossroads between the east and west of the continent. You get a real feel of the east here, yet the city has been home to many of western Europe's greats. Wandering the streets, admiring the stately buildings, and stopping for the occasional cofee and cake, would keep you busy for days. Some of Europe's major museums and galleries are in Vienna, and then there are the walks in the Viennese woods, and maybe a visit to the funfair with its giant Ferris Wheel. The centre of the city is compact enough to be explored on foot, or you can use the very efficient transport system comprising buses, trams and underground (U-Bahn). Make sure you have a good guide book and get the most out of your visit to this wonderful city.

Extractions: The Hapsburg dynasty was influential in Central Europe from the 10th century. As Holy Roman Emperors they controlled an Empire which at its mediaeval zenith covered huge tracts of Europe stretching from Spain and the Netherlands to the Black Sea. The great cities of the Hapsburgs were the golden trio of Vienna, Prague and Budapest, which influenced not only the body politic but also the awesome outpouring of creativity from composers such as Mozart, Hayden, Liszt and Dvorak to Smetena, Bartok and Janacek. We also view the great art works held in these cities with paintings by Da Vinci and Breugel, the Expressionists and Klimt. We do not overlook the great architectural heritage of these cities. Prague is considered the stone jewel in the Hapsburg crown with its stunning range of architecture, which is UNESCO protected. The great Neo-Gothic buildings of Budapest and Neo-Classical splendours of Vienna are also explored. We explore the artistic and musical heritage of neighbouring Poland whose Chopin would certainly rate among the musical greats. The art and architecture of Krakow is regarded as being amongst the best in Europe.

During centuries, the archbishops employed famous artists and architects, so that the old part of Salzburg became a unique city, dominated by the fortress Hohensalzburg. Since 1996 it is listed as Cultural World Heritage of the UNESCO. MUNICH The Bavarian capital attracts its visitors with a huge amount of historic buildings, churches, gardens and palaces. Although not mentioned in the UNESCO list, we dedicate Munich one day of our trip. In a short stop-over, you get a first impression and can relax while enjoying the typical Bavarian food and beverage before you discover the next city of World Heritage. BAMBERG Spread over seven hills and situated in the heart of the Franconian cultural landscape is Bamberg, former centre of episcopal and imperial power. It is the river Regnitz with its many watercourses and bridges that shapes the face of the town and emphasises the romantic atmosphere that the visitor encounters at every turn. Bamberg has essentially developed into a baroque town and yet has still managed to preserve its medieval structures. 1000 years of history have made their mark on Bamberg, listed since 1993 as UNESCO World Heritage.
