Vienna, Austria - 19th September 2008

By: ChristinaB

After a while (my host had to carry me in her bag for a moment because my little feed already got tired from walking) we reached Hofburg (we entered it through "Michaeler-gate") which was the former residence of the Habsburg family. Nowadays it hosts the Austrian national library, the Spanish riding school, the president's office and several museums - it's really a HUGE building. All these funny horses everywhere around there are called "Fiaker" and they are a very popular tourist attraction. A long time ago they were really used for transportation but nowadays they just do guided tours in the city center.
