Great Sites on Vienna
Even though I live in Vienna, I’m often on the lookout for new things to do and see or new places to eat. I’ve got several websites on Vienna bookmarked that I look at for new ideas, but after exploring some of them this morning I thought I’d share one of my favorites: ViennaDirect.com. Vienna Direct is organized into Seeing, Doing, Sleeping, Eating, and Moving, has excellent information, and is very easy to navigate. It’s written by an Austrian resident rather than a tour company, so the information and writing style is more interesting (not so promotional) compared to what you find on the majority of Vienna tourism sites. I also particularly like that the site highlights many “more out of the way” sights, which you’re not likely to find in guidebooks or mainstream sites. So if you’re thinking of coming to Vienna for vacation, or even if you live here and are looking for new ideas, I think you’ll find Vienna Direct to be a valuable site.
