Exquisite place full of museums, history of Austria and it's rich culture. The Hofburg is definitely something to recommend for everyone. Every tourist shouldn't miss on this place, it's well organized, the expositions are highly engaging and there are so many of them, there is a lot to choose from. From my point of view, it's impossible to view all of it in single 24h, so prepare at least a week to take it all in!

One of the biggest palaces I’ve visited. It’s located at the heart of the Vienna. There are 3 museums, church, chapel, the national library, the Spanish riding school park, gardens, and the office of the president of Austria. The Sisi Museum and the library are must see. We paid about $17.50 for Day Ticket which included the visit for the Sisi museum and the imperial apartments.

The Hofburg palace is quite imposing from the outside. Like many other locations in Vienna, it has a beautiful architecture.

We didn't get inside, but we still admired the structure.

I definitely recommend you getting to this place, as there are also many other interesting architectures all around.

It was closed for renovation, but we see it from outside and it looks so huge and so great.

Garden is also very good to sit and relax.
