ART FOR PEACE IN THE WORLD…read more Almost every day there is a guided tour through the Vienna International Center (UN Vienna) also including pieces of art from all over the World (11 a.m. and 2 p.m.) Two of the most impressive pieces I would like to present you today. Ho-o Raigi (The holy birds) by Sgenji Yoshida and a wall rug from the United Arab Emirates (no drugs, no crimes - simplified expressed). Behind the holy birds there is an old Japanese legend. The two phoenix will only come down to Earth when there is peace on Earth. The carpet is a modern piece of Emirati art combining traditional Arabic calligraphy and modern way of carpet making (traditional Emirati carpets have complete different "prints"). The outstanding quality of the carpet itself as well as the message behind the elaborateness of the calligraphy make it very special.

Our city halls in MI are far inferior to the likes of this place, by leaps and bounds. The steeples at the top makes it appear more like a cathedral than a city hall, but religious or city matters, it's still a beautiful place to conduct either task. The surrounding area is also fun to wander, take a stroll. It is also the base for their Christmas market, should you be lucky enough to come during the holidays at all.

Hopefully my pictures capture the beauty and the wonder.

The Sisi Museum was one that I visited, and all day long, the palace grounds are teeming with tourists.

Everything else is either closed to the public or requires an entrance fee. There is something for everyone here: the Sisi Museum, the national Library, the Spanish Riding school (home to the famous Lipizzaner horses), a Butterfly house.....you couldn't possibly see everything in a day! It's quite possibly THE most visited spot in all of Vienna, and you will more than likely find yourself here at some point during your visit. Good luck choosing what to see first! 68/2025
