Vienna, Austria
Dog Friendly Vienna
Where To Stay, Walk, Eat And Drink With Your Dog In Vienna
Vienna is the capital of Austria, a city of grand boulevards, imperial palaces and coffee houses that has been perfecting the art of taking its time for three hundred years. The Ringstrasse circles the old centre, the Prater and its great avenue stretch out to the east, and the Vienna Woods climb the hills on the western edge. Dogs are part of the furniture here, riding the trams muzzled and on a lead, dozing under cafe tables and running in the city's many dog zones. It is a capital that rewards walking slowly and stopping often.
