Holiday Snaps - Part 5

Some more pictures - this time from Vienna. One thing I really liked in Vienna was the public transport. There was a tram service that ran underground and in the U-bahn (underground train) you could see all the way to the next station down the tunnel while you were on the platform.


Here is the famous Prater Park Ferris Wheel.


This is where re Orson Welles meet Joseph Cotton in 'The Third Man'. The Wheel is part of an amusement part on Prater Island.


Stephensplatz - the main square


The roof was destroyed in WWII, and replaced with the patterned one.



The archway in this building leads to the Spanish Riding School.


Michael's tip: If you want to see the Riding School Show it is only on Sundays and costs about 100 Euro per ticket. But, for about 10 Euro you can go to the 'morning exercise' on Tuesday to Saturday where they practise some of the same tricks.
