Whoever and whenever somebody visits this spectacular city of Austria and also its Capital can't leave without visiting the Mozart's Gardens. The flowers are watered all the year and specialists gardeners take care of them all the seasons in order to feel proud when the visitors would see them.

In front of the Rathaus = marehouse of the city which is built in a greek architectural style,
the gardens ornament it and also ornament the Rathaus. They are fabulus and as a first sign in the middle of them they have the musical key of the note sol made also from flowers. All the surrounding is full always of visitors and pretty big streets for pedestrians
and for carriages if somebody wants a ride with a wienese carriage in german is called Landau.

All the environment of Wien is pretty peaceful and the gardens make it or better transformed the city in another marvelous one European station that attracts you and say stay in me because everything here are great. And indeed with all the green environment
that Wien and especially all Austria offers openhanded why anybody to feel the stress of
all the other big cities and to get upset? There everything is calling you to enjoy life and to
have fun going anywhere you want.

For almost 2 hrs. i was standing in front of the Mozart's Gardens and i didn't want to leave
them because despite that i adore the flowers these gardens is a masterpiece of art and a lot of work pretty well done and very carefully made. There you can imagine how the original Austrian miraculous kid-musician left behind him all these spectacular and huge music work that we hear it today and it'll never die through the coming centuries.

I was obliged finally to leave the gardens and with my last look i greated them saying thanks to all these people who worked in order to make the dream reality. By Wien and gardens i'll see you again. Close

Vienna has excellent well-developed network of public transport, so there is no such thing as second-hand market in the lounge or queues at the stations - transport is strictly on schedule and at short intervals.

The transport network is represented by five metro lines, buses, trams and commuter system and intra-rail called Schnellbahn (S-Bahn). At the last used railcar Bombardier Talent.

With tickets in Vienna is interesting: for all types of transport they are equivalent, ie the same ticket can be used for travel on the subway and buses and trams, and even S-Bahn (but only within the city) until until it expires.

Before the trip ticket must be validated, but in this case, it is considered valid, since it placed the time of activation. Tickets can be purchased at subway stations in the special machines, "talking" in different languages. To do this, select the number of days that will work the ticket and put his money into the machine. I note that the ticket is calculated from the date stamped on it the date, but not immediately after purchase.

Choose your tickets is very broad, here are some prices:
- A monthly pass - 50 euros;
- Tickets for 8 days, which you can use any 8 days (not necessarily consecutive), kompostiruya before each trip - 28 euros;
- Ticket for 72 hours - 14 euros;
- Ticket 24 hours - 6 €;
- A ticket for one trip - 2 euros.

If you do not want to buy a ticket from the machine, you can pay on-site - in trams have machines where you can throw a 2 euro trifle, and get a ticket. But it should be borne in mind that in the old trams paper money machine does not accept, and supervisors can come at any time. This is what happened to me when I arrived in Vienna early in the morning, I saw the right tram and jumped into it without a ticket, hoping to get some stops "hare." But there it was! Three controllers have gone on the next stop and threatening questions: Ticket? From this "outrage" I was slightly taken aback, because the controllers in Austria were rarely used (this does not apply to long-distance trains, where they visit several times per trip) and showed the paper to 20 euros, said that just arrived, where buy tickets do not know, but a scoundrel driver does not want me to change money. In their rejoinder: why should we care that? No ticket - pay a fine! I, pointing to the bag, tried to encourage them to conscience, to take pity on an ignorant foreigner, and tell him where and how to buy a ticket to me, armed with knowledge, never did so. Surprisingly it worked, all three at once forgot about fines and vied with each other to tell me where to buy this ill-fated ticket.

However, this case - the exception rather live in Europe, friends afterwards declared that I was lucky to stay with their 60 euros, this is exactly the sum of the fine for fare dodging. In the other is to say that over the next 2 weeks, controllers, I have not met even once, but regularly bought tickets. Murphy's Law?

If you have not purchased tickets in advance, the buses can be paid directly to the driver, the right of it there is such a cash register, which prints the ticket and gives change. Despite the relatively small number of passengers, buses with an accordion, so the cabin is almost always a place.

At stops doors do not open yourself to get out - you should press the button on the door or on the rail, the same thing outside. This is done because people are not very many, and therefore there is no need to open the door for nothing, thus saving heat inside the cabin in winter, electricity, and less wear out mechanical parts. The metro is the same.

If you press the button during the movement, the door, of course, does not open, but the lights at the stop light and the door will open without re-pressing. And the keys open the doors to the new subway, the old need to pull the handle:

Salons in the metro mostly bright and make a good impression, especially the coloring of the walls.

Now, with regard to the stations. Many of the escalators are not afraid of rain, and moving passengers directly onto the street. In addition to the escalators at big stations are there and elevators for passengers with heavy bags. Station not particularly noteworthy. Although there are attempts to diversify the scant practicality, something hanging from the ceiling. Stations of the old model in its own interest.

Since the Vienna Metro shallow and often goes out, the stations are often located directly on the street. And most importantly: no turnstiles in the subway, the leadership of the Vienna Metro hopes solely on the conscience of the passengers, but there is also periodically visited the overseers.Close

One of my best destinations was Brugge that remained unforgetable in my mind so far. The way of living of the people, the peacefuness
the water channels, the first beer house in all over Belgium, the gold
house, the Vikings milles which are only three now and not 28 as they
used to be before because the rest were destroyed by invadors in the
city. I also tried the marvelous frit potatoes with too much mayonaise
because by my arrival i was starving and only the bar of the hotel was
opened. I do not speak THE FLEMISH language but i heard all the history of Brugge by our guide taking a ride with a small boat and i immediatelly understood that Flemish languge has its roots from German and French words. On the other side if you have a family or
you want to spend your honeymoon in Belgium do not forget this great
city because it spreads a magic all over and it is close to Amsterdam
in Netherlands. Follow my advice and admire the marvelous architecture of this dolly city and you are gonna give me right for that
and do not forget that the Bruggers speak pretty good English instead
of French. Bon voyage guys to Belgium and then to BRUGGE.Close
