Stadtpark – Vienna

Vienna is renowned for its parks. One of my favourites was the Stadtpark. Dating from the 19th Century it is popular with both locals and tourists.

 

Inside the park there are monuments to the composers Johann Strauss, Franz Schubert and Robert Stolz amongst others. In fact the Stadtpark is home to the largest number of sculptures and monuments than anywhere else in Vienna.

 

 

 

There are plenty of chances to admire the plants in the park throughout the year. However, visiting in March meant there was little to see in regards to flowers. There were plenty of birds swimming in the lake. It always relaxing to see them swimming carefree.

 

Stadtpark is the perfect place to visit if you are looking to escape the bustle of Vienna. I would suggest an ideal spot to have a picnic lunch when the weather is warm.

Until the next post stay safe, stay healthy and keep smiling.

The area is located in the centre of the city.  It is a hub where the canal boats dock.  The basin is also home some of the most popular bars and restaurants in Birmingham.

Until the next post stay safe, stay healthy and keep smiling.
