  This fashionable suburb is filled with splendid villas and gardens, ranging from the Biedermeier summer residences (enjoyed by the 19th-century nobility), to the Jugendstil (art nouveau) and modernist villas favored by the successful artists and businessmen of late-imperial Vienna. This district offers the Schloß Schönbrunn with its park as well as the Lainzer Tiergarten, the former imperial hunting ground and Vienna’s second largest park.

  In the hilly part of Ottakring are beautiful old villas, as well as Schloß Wilhelminenberg and Villa Aurora. Once working class areas, Rudolfsheim and Ottakring now have the highest immigrant populations in Vienna.

  These districts present ample opportunities for relaxing walks in the woods. There are beautiful Heurigen (traditional Austrian wine taverns), especially in Grinzing and Neustift am Walde, both in the 19th district. Vienna's public swimming pool, the Krapfenwaldlbad, is situated in Döbling on a hill high above the city. This setting of this relaxing pool offers a wonderful view of the city.

  The Burgtheater, the State Opera, beautiful boutiques, expensive hotels and most of the historic monuments are all located in the 1st District or "Innere Stadt" (inner city). This is medieval Vienna with narrow cobbled streets and romantic squares. Kärtnerstrasse is the walking and shopping boulevard with the State Opera at one end and Stephansplatz with Stephansdom at the other.

  Situated east of the city center on the banks of the Danube is Vienna's most popular recreational area, the Donauinsel. This artificial island is a paradise for rollerblading, cycling, jogging, walking and swimming. Furthermore, the area close to the U1-underground station known as the "sunken city" has a busy nightlife.

  The 2nd District is separated from the center of Vienna by the Danube Canal. This area is mostly a residential suburb. Its main offering is the Prater, a vast city park with a Ferris wheel, woods and recreational facilities. Between 1600 and 1939 this district was the center of Vienna's Jewish community. The Strauss family, Gustav Mahler, Arthur Schnitzler, Sigmund Freud and Theodor Herzl each lived here at some point in their lives.

  A predominantly a working-class area with a high immigrant population, the one exception in the 3rd district is the diplomatic quarter close to Schwarzenbergplatz and around the Belvedere. Splendid houses, expensive hotels and excellent restaurants make up this area. Don’t miss the Belvedere itself, possibly Vienna's most beautiful rococo palace. Other sights, such as the KunstHausWien (designed by artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser), the Hundertwasserhaus, the Wittgensteinhaus, the Museum of the 20th century and the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum can be seen in this district.

  The 4th district is a well-presented residential suburb close to the city center. Featuring patrician houses, upscale restaurants and chic bars, this district also offers Radiokulturhaus, the Theresianum and the Naschmarkt, Vienna's biggest and most adventurous market.

  In the 1950’s conditions in this area deteriorated and rents fell, opening it up to artists and students. Today, the old warehouses are trendy studios and flats. The Biedermeier quarter of Spittelberg was saved from demolition and has been refurbished and Mariahilferstrasse transitioned into a thriving shopping area. Plentiful restaurants, bars and nightclubs give this area the most active nightlife in town.

  Wealthy Viennese who prefer to live in the city center have flats in these districts. The Theater in der Josefstadt, the Volksoper, the university campus and the house in which Sigmund Freud used to live are the main tourist attractions.
