The center of Vienna is the Stephansdom (St. Stephen's Cathedral),
the large polychrome-roofed church that is as much of a landmark
for Vienna. From there, the Kärntnerstraße, Vienna's most
elegant shopping and walking street, runs down to the Ring, the
road that encircles the old inner city, and then follows the
line of the old Roman walls that defended the city against the
barbarians on the other side of the Danube.

Vienna's climate runs from warm, sometimes humid summers to cold winters that blanket the city in snow (and sometimes bring a particularly biting, gusty wind). Even in the summer, you may want to take along a raincoat and a warm sweater. If you're traveling into the countryside, especially, you'll want to have a warm sweater with you as evenings may become cool.
