Indeed, lending your ears to the atmosphere of classical music in Austria is just the tip of the iceberg, though, of course, it still is an important part of your trip to Austria. Watch an opera in one of the many opera houses in Vienna and Salzburg or in St. Martinstrum, the world’s largest floating opera stage. Listen to the Vienna Boy’s Choir sing the Sunday mass at the Hofburg Chapel as they have since 1498, or simply see an orchestra concert.

You can also listen to the classical compositions of Mozart, Haydn and Schubert at the Spanish Riding School in Vienna or at a farm in Piber where they serve as the background music for the dressage performances of the Lipizzaner horses. And if you think you’ve had enough of hearing classical music, you can just go to the places where Mozart and other composers once lived and worked. One such place which is also considered one of the must-see attractions in Austria is the Figaro House, where Mozart supposedly composed the famous opera “The Marriage of Figaro”.

Afterwards, it’s time to feast your eyes on Austria’s spectacular natural scenery. This can be done best by taking a cable car to Hafelekar in the mountainous Tirol region or by going on a hiking trip through the Austrian Alps. Not exciting enough?
