A Late Spring Visit to Belvedere Gardens in Vienna

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

When I was in Vienna, Austria, at the end of May, I had a visit to Upper and Lower Belvedere and the gardens, which were in bloom with late spring flowers. Upper and Lower Belvedere are former palaces, but they are now home to art galleries. I visited them when I was in Vienna: Belvedere Art Galleries in Vienna. The gardens have fountains and formal floral gardens and statues, and there are also nice views over the skyline.

The wider gardens also host the Botanic Gardens, and there is also an Alpine Garden that visitors can see for a small entrance fee. The formal gardens and Botanic gardens are free to visit.

On one morning before visiting the galleries, I had breakfast with a glass of Prosecco and a hot chocolate.

The gardens are very beautiful in Vienna, and Belvedere Palaces are beautiful.
