Austria is truly a winter wonderland with a deep, diverse history. A major player in event periods such as the Austrio-Hungarian Empire and World Wars I & II, Austria is stocked with incredible museums and culture honoring the past. What we love most about Austria is its place as the center of classical-era music by the likes of Mozart and Beethoven.
