Parks & Nature

Beautiful public park laid out in a French Baroque style, with flower gardens and shady avenues of chestnut, lime, ash, and maple trees geometrically aligned. Its walls are open from dawn to dusk and are home to a series of eclectic tenants of which two World War II flack towers, the Vienna Boys Choir and their palace, the Porcelain Manufacture and its castle, a summer outdoor cinema and a small theater. The park is perfect for a stroll or a jog. There are various smaller to bigger areas specially designed for children, the map at the entrance will be useful to find them.

Paths for pedestrians and bicycles, small playgrounds and sports area, as well a a nice small rose garden and farther away bars are to be found along the canal. The more interesting part is walking towards the old town (downstream). After the Augarten Brücke is a nice stretch of bars that on some days give Vienna a riviera feeling. The rose garden (in season) is to be found before the Rossauer Brücke where you see a circle on the map vis-à-vis the summer stage.
