Schloss Schönbrunn and the Tiergarten

Today we visited the huge Schloss Schönbrunn. We started with a train tour around the whole area of the palace. The tour takes 45 min! I'd really recommend going on that train as you not only learn a lot of facts going around, but you'll also be able to have a 10 min stroll around the Gloria, a building sitting on top of the hill. Therefore, you can not only have a stunning view over the whole palace and gardens - you can take pics of it as well. After we completed the round, we entered the palace and found ourselves yet again in a stream of audio guide following tourists. After an hour or so, we could finally leave the royal history behind and go out to explore the park. It is huge, and I'd recommend having the whole day only for that. However, we took off for the Tiergarten, the oldest and one of the largest zoos I've ever seen. It is so beautiful, I loved it. You really get the feeling, that the animals are treated well there. We spoke to one of the keepers about their deer, as we saw them trying to give one of them a break from the others. It was quite fascinating what we learned from them. You can spend the whole day here as well. There are so many things to do. But we were on a tight schedule so we decided to move on to the Desert House which has quite some interesting plants and animals hidden. As this was kind of the highlight-day, we figured we should really end the day on a high, so we decided to go eat at the Figlmüller - a well-deserved famous restaurant. But be aware: The fame costs money.Okumaya devam et
