Vienna is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Of course, the characteristic that everyone thinks about is the huge ferris wheel located in the Prater. We rode the bicycles past this incredible mechanical miracle, but continued on to visit other architectural wonders in the rest of the city. You can view the “face” of the city in the photographs below.
