Smart Travels with Rudy Maxa

Vienna and the Danube (2x8)

Data emisji: Maj 24, 2003

Habsburg palaces, coffee houses, Strauss waltzes…all are symbolic of Vienna. Visiting elegant Schoenbrunn Palace, riding in carriages, sampling luscious apple strudel and listening to Mozart concerts, we see that Austria's capital still lives its elegant, proud past. We get a behind-the-scenes peek at how exquisite china is made at Augarten, Europe’s second oldest porcelain manufacturer. For a change from urban to countryside, we cruise down the Danube past vineyards and castles, stop at the dazzling Melk Abbey, and sample "new" wines—unique young varieties special to this part of the world. Tip: Where to experience Vienna’s hot new art scene.
