Joseph Kiran ReddyApril 14, 2014Best place to stroll around, have a coffee or a snack... Best place to have ice creams and pastries... Gaze through the glass windows of shops. Always crowded and this is where all fests happenUpvoted Feb 28

The Ritz-CarltonDecember 12, 2016During the Advent season, the square in front of Vienna´s symbol, the St. Stephan´s Cathedral, turns into a charming Christmas market, where guests enjoy hot mulled wine, handicrafts and delicacies.- Gerald RadingerMarch 26, 2013Visiting Vienna and still no clue? You can easily shop for city guides and maps at freytag & berndt, one of the biggest travel book stores worldwide. Just follow the Graben and turn left: Kohlmarkt 9
The most crowded area in the whole Vienna, together with the luxurious Kärntner Street and Graben. A huge and great place to spend time.
Joanne MoussaFebruary 6, 2016Lots of big brands and a lot of tourists, make sure you try the street wurst and admire the black plague monument!
MuratJanuary 30, 2015The center of the Pedestranian Street, the main church is located. It is always great, full of people, great for people watching, lots of street musicians. Lots of shops, bars and attractions around.
Skilful performances by the Vienna dance schools and the Austrian pop duo The Carpats will sweep you away to the highest level of musical emotions with unforgettable hits.
Minni MeNovember 30, 2018The climb to the cathedral's top really took its toll, but we got to one of the most beautiful views on Vienna. Not recommended for claustrophobic persons.
Yoandris Becerra MendezSeptember 2, 2016It's a great and very dynamic place to walk and enjoy food or coffee in one of the hundreds of terraces it has.
great and central spot for all your architectural, gastronomic and apparel cravings. always worth a visit, even if it's just to stroll around.
ArielleDecember 13, 2015At the Christmas market, go for the gourmet punch stand. Fruit punch gets an official 18/20. Apple punch tastes like liquid apple pie.
The beautiful Stephansdom towers over this area. There's quite a history around/about this Church... some that not even most Viennese know about. Ah, but I do!
- Andreja FajfarMarch 9, 2016The scenic views are unbeatable - since it's directly connected to the U-Bahn, do take the time to explore this wonderful architectural square.
- Nik SumeikoMarch 24, 2013What to say: the heart of #vienna; the super main center; a wonderful place always filled up with thousands of people.
Nash AlsJuly 3, 2016Very nice walk among the big luxury brands or the small local boutiques.. Dont miss this area especially during christmas !- Look for the contours of Virgil Chapel on the pavement and get down to U-Bahn underpass to have a look at this amazing hidden masterpiece underneath the Stephansdom.
Ghazal NkzJanuary 4, 2018As a tourist you must Spend at least 4-5 hours walking , sight seeing and window shopping here, great atmosphere and great history :)
