Outside the museum (goodness knows what happens on cold wet days) we had to line up with military precision or like prisoners in a camp and wait for our allotted time for entry came. Then the assistance inside the Belvedere barked at us about putting bags in the lockers which was causing a problem as there was great kerfuffles over not having the right change for the lockers. The wonderfully curated art more than made up for these petty indignities. A thrill to see these paintings some of the very famous close up and see the brush work almost like seeing the artist at work. The narrative of late nineteenth century western art and the explosion of creativity the beginning of the twentieth century was palpably laid out. Wow...

Upper palace is amazing, staff are helpful and polite. Well worth the visit. Fabulous architecture. The ceilings inside are gorgeous ( big fan of looking up). Paintings galore and some fab sculpture. Spent hours there. Dont bother with the lower palace. Some of the staff are outright rude and frankly theres not much to see. One corridor of paintings, 2 rooms and some medieval art in the stables. Thats all. Not worth the entry fee or the walk, but must say the fountains en route are lovely so the walk wasnt a total loss.

All set, time chosen online: 3 p.m. The fact that we had booked online allowed us to devote the entire morning to other visits and we arrived twenty minutes before the 'entrance time, a tour of the gardens, a few photos and it was time to enter! We got in after barely 40 seconds in line. Everything accurate and well organized. The museum is truly a treat not to be missed. Besides Klimt and the exciting "The Kiss" There are also very interesting works and the baroque hall is really fabulous!

If you're into experiencing traditional practices then this classic training and grooming of the Lipizzaner stallions at the Spanish riding school is a perfect choice.

The centuries-old training between the rider and the horses moving synchronously to the rhythm of Viennese music is a treat for any equestrian.

Enter directly to the Upper Belvedere and be amazed by the display of artworks around you by artists like Gustav Klimt, Van Gogh, Claude Monet, and other renowned artists.

Find intricate artworks on different mediums and themes, decorated Gothic altars, and more prominent works at the exhibition display.

Did you know that The Kiss is a controversial artwork owing to the criticism it received on unveiling but public fundraising brought it back as a national treasure?

Beautiful museum and fairly easy to get to in the city. Incredible place with gorgeous gardens, and of course, so much fantastic art in one place. Highlights of course being all the Klimt paintings and those expression sculptures.

Such an amazing place to visit. Crowds responsibly organised so you can absorb all there is to see without interruption. I wouldn't bother with a guided tour, just take the hand held audio guide!
