Photography: Ashe Liao<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With a multitude of gorgeous palaces in Vienna, you&#8217;re spoiled for choice. Everyone\u2019s top pick would be Schonbrunn Palace, which is the must-see attraction for any first-time visitor. The UNESCO World Heritage site is on every website\u2019s recommendation list. However, I took the road less travelled and opted for the Belvedere Museum instead.<\/p>\n<p>While smaller and perhaps less grand than Schonbrunn Palace, the Belvedere Museum has my heart thanks to its art gallery. It houses masterpieces by artists like Gustav Klimt, Vincent Van Gogh, Egon Schiele, and more. The highlight of my visit was seeing Gustav Klimt\u2019s \u201cThe Kiss\u201d in all its glory (pictured top right). And I won\u2019t lie, I almost cried.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d suggest booking your tickets online because it\u2019s slightly cheaper. Start your visit at the Upper Belvedere, where The Kiss is housed. No re-entry is allowed, so make sure you get all your pictures taken before walking through the gardens to Lower Belvedere for other works like Judith and the Portrait of a Lady, which is so incredibly detailed you\u2019d think it\u2019s a photograph.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> Tickets start from $28.80 (\u20ac19.50), children under 19 enter for free<br \/>\n<strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Daily, 9am to 6pm (Upper Belvedere); Daily, 10am to 6pm (Lower Belvedere)<br \/>\n<strong>Address:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.belvedere.at\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Belvedere Museum<\/a>, Prinz-Eugen-Strasse 27, 1030 Vienna, Austria<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-ride-rollercoasters-at-prater\"><\/span>2.

Photography: Ashe Liao<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>An amusement park with free entry? Yes, it exists in Vienna. I\u2019ll be honest, my fellow travellers and I had low expectations of Prater before we visited. We imagined an older, perhaps slightly rundown amusement park with rickety rides and dubious safety protocols. Singaporeans who used to frequent Escape Theme Park, you\u2019ll know what I\u2019m picturing.<\/p>\n<p>So imagine our surprise when we were greeted with wildly vibrant colours and a lively crowd. Far from our pessimistic imaginations, Prater blows any theme park I\u2019ve visited out of the water. It\u2019s huge and took me 30 minutes of speed walking to get a glimpse of almost everything.<\/p>\n<p>Prater follows a pay-to-ride system, so you only have to pay for the rides you take. While it was crowded during my visit, most of the rides didn\u2019t have long queues.

It combines innovative lighting effects and immersive music, which left me mesmerised. I highly recommend not using your phone during the show.

After basking in its gothic architecture, I was lucky enough to witness the beginnings of a mass and listen to the bells toll.<\/p>\n<p>As the cathedral functions as a place of worship, I recommend visiting the website to check the event schedule, as some choir and organ practices may disrupt visiting hours. Besides guided tours within the cathedral, you can get tickets to enter the catacombs, walk up the south tower of the cathedral for stunning views of the city, or book an evening tour on the roof.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> Free entry to the main foyer, ticketed tours available<br \/>\n<strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Monday to Saturday, 6am to 10pm; Sunday, 7am &#8211; 10pm<br \/>\n<strong>Address:<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stephanskirche.at\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> St. Stephen\u2019s Cathedral<\/a>, Stephansplatz 3, 1010 Wien, Austria<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-have-schnitzel-at-skopik-lohn\"><\/span>7.

By the time I arrived for dinner with a group at about 7pm, the alfresco tables were already filled with diners.. Fun fact: most buildings in Vienna don\u2019t have air conditioning, so sitting inside Skopik &amp; Lohn was a bit stuffy, but it kept me warm from the chilly night air. I\u2019d recommend sitting outside if you enjoy a night breeze.<\/p>\n<p>The menu is kept slim with just 12 items \u2013 and yes, my table ordered one of everything! The wiener schnitzel is the signature here. For anyone unfamiliar with this dish, it\u2019s veal (meat from a calf) pounded out thin and fried, typically served with a side of potato salad and jam. Skopik &amp; Lohn\u2019s version was flavourful with a subtle gamey taste without being greasy. I also devoured the vitello tonnato (pink veal with a cream sauce), and it\u2019s one for the adventurous eaters since cold and slightly raw meat isn&#8217;t for everyone. Other options include the rainbow trout and chicken with a gochujang glaze, which were all delicious. Safe to say, the plates were wiped clean.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> Schnitzel starts from $39.90 (\u20ac27), other dishes start from $20.70 (\u20ac14)<br \/>\n<strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Tuesday to Sunday, 6pm to 12am<br \/>\n<strong>Address:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/skopikundlohn.at\/en\/home-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skopik &amp; Lohn<\/a>, Leopoldsgasse 17, 1020 Wien, Austria<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8-get-to-know-vienna-with-rebel-tours\"><\/span>8.

Learning moments were broken up with idle conversations about travel plans, curious questions, and even a moment where he showed me a video of his daughter.

After years of dedicated collecting and meticulous curating, Austrian philanthropist and art collector Heidi Goess-Horten created this museum to showcase her collection publicly and champion arts education. I got a private tour before the museum opened for the day, and soaked in the diverse works of art from classical modernism to contemporary.<\/p>\n<p>The thing that struck me the most? An entire exhibit space dedicated to the museum\u2019s historical responsibility. It\u2019s three walls covered in text, acknowledging how the founder\u2019s husband used exploitation and violence to acquire his wealth. For transparency and recognition of this, the museum\u2019s activities centre around current socio-political developments, engaging the public on topics like democracy, tolerance, and diversity. As someone who values accountability, especially in establishments, this museum visit now holds a special place in my heart.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> Tickets start from $24 (\u20ac16), children under 19 years old enter for free<br \/>\n<strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Monday to Wednesday, 11am to 7pm; Thursday, 11am to 9pm; Friday to Sunday, 11am to 7pm; closed on Tuesdays<br \/>\n<strong>Address:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/hortencollection.com\/en\/about-the-heidi-horten-collection\/collection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heidi Horten Collection<\/a>, Hanuschgasse 3, 1010 Wien, Austria<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10-sigmund-freud-museum\"><\/span>10.

However, it also means bigger crowds and higher prices.<\/p>\n<p>The best time to visit is late spring (April to May) or early autumn (September to October). It\u2019s off-peak tourist season with comfortable weather for sightseeing, though there might be fewer things to do.<\/p>\n<p>While winter (November to March) may be cold and offer shorter daytime hours, it\u2019s great for Christmas and festive markets. You can even plan a ski trip!<\/p>\n<\/div><h3>How many days is enough to visit Vienna?<\/h3><div><p>Three to four days is typically enough for a visit. However, I\u2019d recommend going for about five to seven days to give yourself breaks and not rush the experience.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3>What is Vienna\u2019s timezone?<\/h3><div><p>Vienna is in GMT +2, which makes it 6 hours behind Singapore. For example, if it\u2019s 12pm here, it\u2019s 6am in Vienna.<\/p>\n<\/div><h3>How much should I save before going to Vienna?<\/h3><div><p>Spending will depend on your travel style.
