Imperial Viena in B&W

Today we were off to the Hofburg Palace....

Some sights along the way








The Mozart monument in the Burgarten















The Hofburg is an amazing complex, the Spanish riding school tour was fully booked so we did the tour of the Silver Museum and the Imperial Apartments.Impressive and all that but a museum rather than a palace now adays













The Votivkirsche





looking back to the Rathaus (a much better name than Town Hall if you ask me!)








The Hofburg again





Spanish Riding School....


And the afternoon cake was Sacher Torte at the Cafe Sacher - naturally
