Christmas celebrations are earnestly undertaken. There is no better
place to get into the seasonal spirit than Vienna and its charming age-

shadow of the dramatic Baroque architecture. Sprinkle in the finest
classical concerts in some of the most magnificent venues in the world,
art installations and outdoor ice rinks, and discover a truly enchanted
winter wonderland.
