drinks

Step into the Blaue Bar at Hotel Sacher, where royal-blue walls, crystal chandeliers and velvet booths make even a quick drink feel like an occasion. Right opposite the Vienna State Opera, it’s perfect for a pre-show cocktail or a late-night one, with Sacher-inspired creations bringing chocolate and apricot into the mix.

culture

If your idea of a good afternoon involves a little less sightseeing and a lot more staring at photographs, make a beeline for WestLicht. Founded in 2001, Vienna’s photography museum occupies a former glass factory turned lofty exhibition space, where changing shows range from major names like Vivian Maier and Ernst Haas to overlooked gems from Austrian photography. There’s also a permanent collection of around 360 cameras, including the world’s first commercially produced camera. And on Thursdays, stick around for its Hai Bar, named for the two sharks keeping watch behind the counter.
