Cafe Frey
Usually, we do not have breakfast at the hotel, but try to find interesting cafes with delicious food near the city centre.
I, as a real fan of coffee, was delighted by this place. One small warning: when children see cakes and pies that are served here, they will not want to eat anything other than desserts for breakfast.

House of Music
We visited this museum for the first time and were simply delighted!
Firstly, many exhibits here can and should be touched, for example, take a conductor's baton to control the orchestra, or play a sonata with Mozart. In the futuristic hall on the fourth, the interactive space emits sounds in response to each visitor's movement.
Secondly, here you can get a lot of interesting information about the great classical composers who created their works in the Austrian capital, to consider their musical instruments and musical notations.
In general, even if you are not engaged in music, this place is definitely worth a visit!

Schmetterlinghaus
Schmetterlinghaus is located in the Hofburg area in the Palm Pavilion of the Burggarten Park. This is a real paradise where you can watch different kinds of amazing butterflies, from giant tropical to pale tiny moths.
The interior of the greenhouse resembles a tropical forest. It's so amazing to watch butterflies hatch from the cocoon, fly freely in the air, or eat ripe fruit.

Brasserie Palmenhaus Wien
We did not want to leave this wonderful place after visiting the butterfly house, so we decided to have lunch in a restaurant located in the greenhouse. It looks so magical, from the glass window you can see the palace and the park, and inside there are a lot of palms.
The food here is just on top! I tried a few dishes, and the most memorable was the fish on the grill, it is simply inexpressibly delicious! Still here is a pretty good wine list, and Austrian wines are known all over the world for their taste and rich flavour.

Prater
Adventure Time! Take a taxi to get to the Vienna's theme park.
There are a lot of attractions, two Ferris wheels, one of which was built in the distant 1897, and still functions perfectly being kept in good condition. On the territory of the park, there is even a Madame Tussaud's wax museum. Of course, it is not as big as in London, but it contains figures of the most famous people in Austria and beyond.

L'Osteria
The basis of the menu of this Italian cafe is pasta and pizza. Portions of pizza here are so huge that they hardly fit on a plate. We had one for four people, and it was very tasty. If you prefer a light dinner, there is a pretty good selection of salads. I took Manzo and was very pleased.
Big gratitude to waiters and cooks, in spite of the fact that there were quite a lot of people in the evening in the cafe, they managed to cook and serve very quickly.
