This park was laid out for the imperial family in the early 19th century and, as one might expect, it is the site of many monuments dedicated to Austria's various emperors. It is lush and informal with large expanses of lawn. A memorial to Mozart is composed of relief sculptures showing a scene from "Don Giovanni" and "Mozart with his Family." A Jugendstil conservatory overlooks the garden.

Originally the imperial hunting grounds, the meadow and woods along the Danube are now an enormous public park and a popular attraction. The park is divided into two sections. The first is the Wurstelprater, or funfair section, and features rides, booths, and restaurants. Enjoy a ride on one of Vienna's most famous landmarks, which is a giant Ferris wheel called Riesenrad. It moves slowly (about one revolution every 20 minutes) so riders can enjoy views of the park and the city. The other part of the park is devoted to trade fairs and sports activities.

This city hall park features a line of statues on either side of the avenue that divide it in two. An array of fountains and benches are scattered throughout the leafy grounds. Open-air concerts are held here in the summer and during Advent, the central avenue is transformed into a Christmas market with lots of lights and holiday ambience.

Stroll though the Baroque gardens and walkways and see the fountains, the faux Roman ruins, and the Obelisk fountain. The first gardens were originally established by French designer Jean Trehet in the late 17th century and greatly extended under the reign of Maria Theresa and Josef II. Arbors, greenery, and formal flowerbeds form a backdrop for the elegant statuary and fountains. Throughout July and August the park plays host to the Wiener Kammeroper, who performs Mozart operas in the evenings.

This 19th century municipal park is an ideal spot to relax and enjoy a leisurely afternoon. It is laid out along the Vienna River with two bridges crossing over. It features meandering walkways and a central lake with fountains that are lit up in the evening. It is the site of many statues dedicated to the city's famous painters and musicians, including a memorial to Johann Strauss. Waltz concerts are held daily in the late afternoon and early evening from Easter to October.
