Austria, the country that largely consists of majestic Alpine mountains and valleys, is situated in the middle of Europe. Even though we are not such mountain hikers, we can still enjoy the mountains and the overwhelming landscape, something that we in the Netherlands miss quite a bit. And then there are the picturesque villages that are hidden in the valleys or that seem to be glued to the mountain slopes. We traveled through it during our trip to Central Europe in 2003 and also made a 2-day visit to the capital, Vienna, which, full of pompous buildings, still radiates the power of the Austrian Empire and the Habsburg House from the past.
Here are our travelogue(s), photographs, online jigsaw puzzles of travel pictures and information about Austria.
