The train from Salzburg to Vienna is a comfortable and relaxing three-hour journey.
奧地利首都維也納位於該國東部多瑙河畔。莫札特、貝多芬和西格蒙德·佛洛伊德等名人都曾居住於此，塑造了這座城市的藝術和思想遺產。這座城市也以其皇宮而聞名，其中包括哈布斯堡王朝的夏宮美泉宮。
2016年曾經和老同學到此一遊，影響深刻。 只是時間太少。 這次我們會在這裡五天，再好好看看。

Vienna, Austria’s capital, lies in the country’s east on the Danube River. Its artistic and intellectual legacy was shaped by residents including Mozart, Beethoven and Sigmund Freud. The city is also known for its Imperial palaces, including Schönbrunn, the Habsburgs’ summer residence.
I had visited Vienna with my old classmates in 2016 and was profoundly impressed. But it was a short visit. This time we'll spend five days here to immerse the city life of Viennians.
早上搭地鐵到史蒂芬廣場， 從格拉本街開始了維也納之旅。

“格拉本”在德文裡原意是「壕溝」或「地塹」。這條繁華的大街在古羅馬時期確實是城牆外的一條護城河，後來被填平成為街道，但名稱保留下來。今天，格拉本大街是維也納內城（第一區）最核心、最豪華的購物街之一，兩旁遍布設計師精品店和維也納咖啡館。

We took the subway to Stephansplatz this morning, started our tour on Graben.

"Graben" originally means "moat" or "graben" in German. This bustling street was actually a moat outside the city walls during Roman times. It was later filled in and turned into a street, but the name remained.

Today, Graben is one of Vienna's most central and luxurious shopping streets in the inner city (first district), lined with designer boutiques and Viennese cafés.
1679 年至 1680 年間維也納遭受瘟疫襲擊。1683年維也納之戰阻止了奧斯曼帝國向中歐的擴張。利奧波德噴泉建立於1685至1690年間。噴泉是獻給奧地利和維也納的守護聖人的，意在感謝神聖的庇佑，祈求他繼續保護這座城市免於戰亂、瘟疫等災難。噴泉頂部的雕塑正是聖利奧波德的立像，他手持旗幟和教堂模型，彰顯其統治者和信仰捍衛者的形象。利奧波德噴泉是一座勝利的紀念碑，象徵著帝國在利奧波德一世領導下度過危機，並迎來新的繁榮。

Between 1679 and 1680, Vienna was struck by a plague. The Battle of Vienna in 1683 halted the expansion of the Ottoman Empire into Central Europe. The Leopold Fountain was constructed between 1685 and 1690. The fountain is dedicated to the patron saint of Austria and Vienna, intended as a gratitude for divine protection and a plea for his continued safeguarding of the city from disasters such as war and plague. The sculpture atop the fountain is a standing statue of Saint Leopold, holding a banner and a model of a church, symbolizing his role as a ruler and defender of the faith. The Leopold Fountain stands as a victory monument, symbolizing the empire's triumph over crisis under the leadership of Leopold I and the dawn of a new prosperity.

聖彼得教堂是維也納最古老的教堂。 在維也納遭受瘟疫襲擊時，身為聖三一兄弟會的成員，利奧波德皇帝發誓要重建這座教堂。 1733 年，教堂竣工後，被奉獻給聖三一和聖彼得。如今，聖彼得教堂是維也納最美麗的巴洛克式教堂之一，也是奧地利最傑出的藝術古蹟之一。

維也納古典樂團的音樂會在聖彼得教堂舉行。
The first St. Peter's church is the oldest church in Vienna. Emperor Leopold as a member of the Fraternity of the Holy Trinity had taken a vow to rebuild this church when Vienna was struck by the plague. In 1733, after the church was finished, it was consecrated to the Holy Trinity and Saint Peter. Today St. Peter's church is one of the most beautiful baroque churches in Vienna and one of the most outstanding artistic monuments in Austria.

The concerts of the Classic Ensemble Vienna took place at the St. Peter's Church.

美泉宮是歐洲最美的巴洛克式建築群之一，自1569年以來一直由哈布斯堡王朝擁有。哈布斯堡王朝昔日的夏宮以其皇家禮儀廳、宏偉的花園和奢華的虛擬現實而著名。瑪麗亞·特蕾莎、弗朗茨·約瑟夫皇帝、伊莉莎白皇后等都曾居住在美泉宮。
如今，這座宮殿因其歷史意義、獨特的佈局和華麗的裝飾而被聯合國教科文組織列為世界遺產。

Schönbrunn Palace, one of Europe's finest Baroque architectural complexes, has been in the Habsburg dynasty's possession since 1569. This former summer residence of the Habsburgs is renowned for its imperial ceremonial halls, magnificent gardens, and lavish villas. Maria Theresa, Emperor Franz Joseph, and Empress Elisabeth all resided at Schönbrunn.

Today, the palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its historical significance, unique layout, and opulent decoration.

在瑪利亞希爾弗街逛街：奧地利最長、客流量最大的購物街。

Mariahilfer Strasse: – Austria’s longest and most visited shopping street, packed with international brands like Zara, H&M, and Mango.
戈爾德格咖啡館 由維也納多布納家族於 1910 年創立。這家咖啡館曾是鐵路工人的常去之地。在納粹統治時期，直到 1941 年 5 月，這裡一直是受迫害的工會主義者和革命社會主義者（尤其是鐵路工人）的聚會場所。 1988/89 年，在維也納老城保護基金會的支持下，對該建築進行原始的修復，並被列為古蹟保護建築。

黑色大理石桌子飾有白色紋理，座位壁龕內舖有深綠色長毛絨軟墊，並懸掛著黃銅吊燈。此外，飯店還設有一張撞球桌和一個非常特別的研討室。

由於這些經典的新藝術風格咖啡館元素，曾多次被用作電影拍攝地。
Café Goldegg was founded in 1910 by the Viennese Dobner coffeehouse family. The former Café Dobner was a regular haunt of railway workers. During the Nazi era, it served as a meeting place for persecuted trade unionists and revolutionary socialists, especially railway workers, until May 1941.

In 1988/89, a faithful restoration, supported by the Vienna Old Town Preservation Fund, was carried out and the building was placed under monument protection.

Black marble tables with white veining, dark green plush upholstery in the seating niches, and brass chandeliers. A billiards table and a very special seminar room are also available.

Because of all these classic Art Nouveau coffeehouse elements, the Goldegg has been used as a film set on several occasions.
美景宮是奧地利維也納一座歷史悠久的建築群，由兩座巴洛克式宮殿（上美景宮和下美景宮）、橘園和宮廷馬厩組成。這座巴洛克式宮殿建築群原本是薩伏依王子歐根親王的夏宮。

美景宮的建造正值維也納繁榮時期，是在總司令歐根親王薩伏依成功結束了一系列針對奧斯曼帝國的戰爭之後開始的。維也納既是帝國首都，也是哈布斯堡王朝的統治中心。

The Belvedere is a historic building complex in Vienna, Austria consisting of two Baroque palaces (the Upper and Lower Belvedere), the Orangery, and the Palace Stables. The Baroque palace complex was built as a summer residence for Prince Eugene of Savoy.

The Belvedere was built during a period of extensive construction in Vienna, which at the time was both the imperial capital and home to the ruling Habsburg dynasty. This period of prosperity followed on from the commander-in-chief Prince Eugene of Savoy's successful conclusion of a series of wars against the Ottoman Empire.

維也納藝術史博物館坐落在環城大道上，位於一座富麗堂皇的宮殿建築內，頂部是八角形的圓頂。 「藝術史博物館」一詞既指博物館本身，也指其主樓。它是奧地利最大的藝術博物館。

這座環城大道博物館均由奧匈帝國皇帝弗朗茨·約瑟夫一世下令建造，旨在為哈布斯堡王朝龐大的藝術藏品尋找合適的庇護所，並於1891年向公眾開放。博物館的正面由砂岩建造。建築物呈長方形，頂部有一個60米高的圓頂。建築內部裝飾華麗，有大理石、灰泥裝飾、金箔和繪畫。
The Kunsthistorisches Museum is an art museum in Vienna, Austria. Housed in its festive palatial building on Ringstraße, it is crowned with an octagonal dome. The term Kunsthistorisches Museum applies to both the institution and the main building. It is the largest art museum in the country.

The Ringstraße museum was commissioned by the Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary in order to find a suitable shelter for the Habsburgs’ formidable art collection and both museums opened to the public in 1891. The façade was built of sandstone. The building is rectangular in shape, and topped with a dome that is 60 meters high. The inside of the building is lavishly decorated with marble, stucco ornamentations, gold-leaf, and paintings.

維也納自然史博物館聳立在瑪利亞·特蕾莎廣場另一端。也是由奧匈帝國皇帝弗朗茨·約瑟夫一世下令建造，兩座博物館外觀相似，隔著瑪利亞·特蕾莎廣場相望。

The Vienna Natural History Museum is located at the other end of Maria Theresa Square. It was also built by order of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph I. The two museums are similar in appearance and face each other across Maria Theresa Square.
