Austria. Moments of Bliss
Austria has long captured the spirit of a bygone era. Ornate palaces, imperial grandeur and echoes of Mozart, Strauss, and Haydn's music abound. Artists such as Gustav Klimt, Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser have left their mark on Austria in art, style and design.
Throughout the country, old masters now mingle with an explosion of new creativity. The result? Austria's famously beautiful cities and breathtaking landscapes.
But visitors have lately discovered another exciting development: Austria has become a real haven for gourmands. Alongside the exploding wine scene, a sophisticated culinary movement has taken off. Farmers and chefs have reconnected with the country's traditional reverence for fresh, seasonal and local produce - coupled with the creativity that first put Austria on the map.
More than ever, it's a top destination for travellers seeking energy, culture, and charm.
