Vienna, Austria - 11th July 2007

By: ChristinaB

Finally I saw the river Danube yesterday! Very impressing, I must say... It was a bit rainy - otherwise I would really have taken a bath there ;)

My host also showed me the Danubetower nearby and the building of the UNO here in Vienna. We also passed by the famous Big Wheel (it was raining alot there so the photo came out a bit dark...) and the colourful house created by Friedensreich Hundertwasser - beautiful, isn't it? I was told that there is nothing special inside, just normal flats. Would be nice to live there, hm? All the people who live there have the right to create the wall around their windows as they like - but only as far as they can reach with their arms. So the building changes a bit from time to time. It is said that there is no right angle in the whole building. Can't believe that - but it sounds interesting anyway.

We also went up a hill from where we had a beautiful view over the city. Vienna is such a beautiful place and my host promised me to show me some more nice places this afternoon.
