ISBN: 9798192227947 - vienna for free: a guide to the city's best free and low-cost experiences (free city guides, band 8) (1 Ergebnisse)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Vienna for Free is a practical city guide for travelers who want the best of Vienna without feeling obliged to buy a ticket at every stop. Grace Harper shows how the city's character - its palaces, parks, arcades and markets - is often best discovered by walking, lingering and picking a few well-chosen paid moments rather than chasing every headline attraction. The book uses concrete, usable choices: when the Kunsthistorisches plaza, MuseumsQuartier courtyards or the Secession frieze give you most of the payoff; where Schonbrunn Gardens and the Gloriette or the Prater Hauptallee make a whole afternoon of free fresh air; and how a short loop through Stephansplatz, the Graben and the Hofburg explains the historic core in a single, sensible circuit. Inside you'll find: - clear self-guided walks and half-day sample plans that keep walking time realistic - the best free-or-low-cost museum options and lively public courtyards to browse - neighborhood routes and markets (Naschmarkt, Karmelitermarkt, Brunnenmarkt) for inexpensive meals and local color >Grace is candid about tradeoffs: free usually means exteriors, gardens or public spaces, and some prized experiences still require transport, a reserved slot, a small donation, or a single paid museum visit. The guide tells you when a paid interior is worth it, how to choose one priority, and how to combine it with inexpensive local options so free-focused days feel rich, not second-best. Practical, readable and specific to Vienna, this book helps you spend your time well: see what matters, avoid unnecessary queues or costly detours, and enjoy the city in a way that's both affordable and genuinely rewarding. …
