Welcome to the blog of Apartment.at - Your specialist for Vienna. Do you want to get to know the real Vienna and its people, apart from the guidebooks, then you are in the right place here. Look forward to fascinating insights into Vienna, its people, art & culture and what it is that makes life worth living here.

The title already reveals the big question. It is raining and you want to do something with your child. Then read on, because Vienna has a lot to offer even in rainy weather, and not just for adults. Today I have put together a few inspirations and ideas for you, but there is a lot more, what you and your family can experience and do in Vienna.

Vienna and hiking? How does that fit together? Hiking holiday in Vienna, have you ever thought of that? Today, Michael Morgenbesser introduces you to hiking in Vienna in the blog. Climb the hills and mountains in and around Vienna, because there is a lot to discover there.

My life is a stroke of luck. I managed to combine two of my passions and make money from it. I love books and I need a lot of exercise in nature. I have been able to design the Kral Verlag leisure program for nine years. That means constant suggestions and preoccupation with hiking, leisure ideas and temptations. Stephanie has already reported on our book program in her wonderful blog.

The past few weeks have been very challenging, often ambivalent, for many of us. Suddenly there was a lot of time, but also a lot of new tasks and challenges and a lot was different. A lot has been questioned and a lot has been rethought. So also the vacation time.

Moments pass. Memories fade. Stories stay.
We all have them ... Holiday & Leisure. Sometimes more, sometimes less, sometimes during the week, sometimes only on weekends. It is the most precious time that exists, because it is the time when we can finally be "ourselves".

Have you already discovered the new offer on Apartment.at? Recently, we started working together with GET LOCAL to offer you a wider range of services, as GET LOCAL complements our offer perfectly.

In the last blog post we, Giulia and Zoe, have already told you about our experiences with the Viennese underwater world. Today we continue with the animal part of Vienna. We were in the Zoo Schönbrunn and then in the Natural History Museum.

Would you like to get to know the real Vienna? So not what Tripadvisor & Co and the guide suggest. But the hidden places, restaurants, shops that make the city so liveable and endearing.
I chatted with Clemens of Prime Tours. Prime Tours offers you exactly that, to look behind the scenes of Vienna, to get to know new facets of this diverse city and to be a local for a day, according to its motto.

What is real? And what is staging? What do you think you see, is it really true? Or is everything a big illusion? These questions are the focus of the 3D Pic Art Museum, Vienna's first 3D TrickArt attraction. Because here illusion, staging and reality meet. A crazy photo fun in the heart of Vienna.

From 22nd June to 24th June, the Danube Island Festival, Europe's largest open-air festival, will take place, this year for the 35th time. It all began in 1983 as a small family event, at that time as an attempt to establish an festival here. However, the number of visitors had already clearly exceeded expectations in the first year and thus the festival remained as an annual fixed date.

You may already have noticed that I'm not only eager to work for you and write you about Vienna, but I am also a yoga teacher. That's why today I present you the studio FREIRAUM Institut.

The time before Christmas is especially for children a very special time of the year. Cookies are baked, a letter to Christkind is written, a door of the Advent calender is opened every day, and this very special magic that only exists before Christmas opens up.

Have you ever wanted to go to the zoo after the closing time, so without the many visitors? Just to see what the animals do, if it is calmer and if it is also for them slowly time for their night rest.

Vienna had a bold plan long ago: to become the center of marine biology research in Europe.
You do not believe me? Then read on, because this plan really existed and the "tracks" you can still experience everyday.

In the middle of Vienna's city center you can go on an exciting journey through Vienna. From the Romans to today's Vienna. Where? This I will tell you today in the blog.
