Experiential blog 3- Vienna

There are many words I would use to describe the city of Vienna but if I had to pick one, exquisite. The building were all keep in pristine condition from when Vienna was at center of the Empire. The detail and architecture of each building were phenomenal. The landscape was more flat then I was expecting but the palace and its garden was sitting at the top of the whole city. I was not expecting to see all of the old building still standing, but excepted some since Vienna was were the royal family lived. I thought there would at least be some modern build made of all glass but to my surprise there was none. The city has spent a lot of money to maintain the city and have done a superber job. I believe Vienna has kept its pride and elegance, since the end of the Empire, in the maintenance of their city, palaces and cathedrals. Also, I learn it would always be wise to learn a small amount of the language spoken in the country you visit.
