Also the Staatsoper and the Volksoper are popular places for music lovers.

Have you seen the movies of Sissi? Then you need to visit the Hofburg Imperial Palace where you can visit the Sissi Museum.

Some other important places to visit are: the palace of Shnbrunn with their beautiful gardens, the Wienerwald, the Donau park, the St. Stephans Cathedral, The Karlskirche and Prater.

I recommend you also to visit the Spanish Riding School where you can see the Lippizan horses which gave marvellous shows.
You can enjoy some delicious desserts in Vienna like the Apfelstrudel and the Sachertarte.

TUSCANY
Tuscany is in my opinion the most beautiful place in Italy and situated east of the Liguarian Sea and the Tyrrhenian Sea. Florence and Siena are the two cities in Tuscany where you can find the most pieces of art. The Duomo and the Cathedral are masterpieces and well known in the world. The cathedral "Santa Maria del Fiora" is the most important building in Florence and the third greatest in the world.

Marble from Carrera is used in many important buildings in Tuscany.The leaning tower of Pisa is also an important building in Tuscany and popular worldwide. Michelangelo is also an important person in Tuscany. Many of his works can be found in Tuscany and especially in Florence. Almost everyone knows his most popular work " David" which he created for the cathedral of Florence but the original work is now preserved in The Gallery of the Academia di Belle Arte.

Lucca, Volterra, Pistoia, Carrara and San Gimignano are other beautiful cities in Tuscany which are worthwhile to visit.
Tuscany is not only a region of beautiful buildings and statues but is situated in the most beautiful landscape of Italy. There are many flowers and the green colors of the nature is beautiful for sightseeing.
