Leisure options close to the venue
If you’re only in the city for a short time, we recommend relaxing on the banks of the Old Danube where you can enjoy a meal at a waterside restaurant or lap up the views of the nearby vineyards. Vienna's 2nd district, Leopoldstadt, is a laid-back neighbourhood with a Jewish history. You’ll be spoilt for choice with a wide variety of bars and restaurants centred on the lively Karmelitermarkt.
