A small butterfly conservatory…read more For 7€ a person, it is absolutely with it. There is only one room, with a bridge, lots of flowers and 6 different butterfly species. Although when we went one was 95% seen. It will take you about half an hour to walk around and see the whole exhibition. You do learn some interesting fun facts about butterflies. Special note: it is really warm in there, leave your jackets outside, there are free coat hangers

Still rainy, so let's stay inside…read more As part of the Hofburg Royal Palace, The Imperial Butterfly House is housed within an Art Nouveau greenhouse in the Burggarten. Admission in 7€. The gravel path makes a loop through the garden and round a small creek and waterfall. The path is quite narrow in spots. As you walk in there is a case of chrysalises. Some butterflies as recently emerged. Not sure if it was the time of year, December, but there were not many butterflies flitting around, or a large variety. I believe I saw around a half dozen or so different types. A single atlas moth larger than my hand was resting near the door as you walked in. You can watch them eat on bananas and special flowers sprayed with honey water. I looped the garden twice, in about 45 minutes. There's a room off from the gift shop that shows a loop film about the life cycle of butterflies and moths. Ok for a rainy day. I wouldn't return.

I have ice skated alot of places usually it is just a wrink but this is 5 with two levels and ramps…read moreand trails through the park. The trails have LED lights in the ice so you know where to go. Fun for all ages with a live dj and village to get drinks, beer and food. Get your tickets, locker and skate rental online then type in your code at the machine it js much cheaper. The food was great and bar had hot winter drinks I tried a whiskey blueberry beverage with original sausage. Go once the sun is down and all the trees are lit up. Easily accessibly by the tram or subway from most areas of town.

Was able to taste the white chocolate punch this time. (Last time was during our annual alcohol…read morefree month) and it was delicious. More alcohol than chocolate-just the way I like it. The Kaiserkrainers are also pretty good too. Apart from the usual there are burgers and wraps and a pita stand too just in case you are in the mood for something different. As with last time everyone is very friendly and happy to help. What fun it is to watch the skaters go around and not have to worry about bumping into any of them. Almost as much fun as being on the ice, ALMOST but not quite! Itching to get back on the ice!
