Stephansdom is the number one sight to see in Viennaand is incredibly beautiful. It has a very gothic facade with a multi coloured tiled roof. Inside its dripping in sculptures and flourishes. We went to Mass inside the catheral on Sunday morning and though we couldn't understand the sermon, the acoustics were amazing and the choir sounded amazing.

If you get to the opera house at 10 o'clock or so, you can queue for a couple of hours to get a standing ticket for that evening's performance. The tickets only cost three euros and even though you don't get a seat, you can survive by leaning against a railing. The opera house is absolutely vast and amazingly beautiful inside.

The first club to take up residence in one of the vaulted arches under Vienna's Stadtbahn, the elevated city railroad system designed by the great Jugendstil architect, Otto Wagner, Chelsea soon triggered a host of restaurants and bars to also open up in these historic sites. Still packed most evenings, Chelsea is primarily a music club and but it also has a mean following with fans of English soccer -- on Sunday at 4 PM there's a Happy Hour with a jumbo-screen televised game.
