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!

The Belvedere Castle was by far the monument that impressed me the most! Beautiful, snow-white, well-kept. Spacious spaces inside, and although there were a lot of people, with the hourly entrances it' was possible to visit it without problems. The works on display are noteworthy, Klimte and Schiele stand out, but the whole collection is of great depth. The gardens are very beautiful and take you back to the years of good royal walks. Punctual with the schedule, you enter without wasting time.

Magnificent and scenic palace, beautiful gardens. The entrance time of the reservation was respected. We so enjoyed the display of paintings and the description provided by the audio guide as well as the information for each room. Numerous visitors forced us to wait to view the most famous paintings. Unfortunately, instead we were emailed back that it was not possible to deposit our luggage in the lockers inside the Belvedere, which is not true.

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?

I have recently visited Belvedere together with my husband and we both find all the complex (gardens and the palaces) absolutely amazing. Inside the Upper Belvedere you can find a lot of valuable paintings separated by the historical period when they were made, including the "Napoleon crossing the Alps" by Jacques Louis David and "The Kiss" by Gustav Klimt. I definitely recommend everyone a visit to Belvedere when coming to Vienna.

The museum inside was good, I already knew it. But although we had booked tickets in advance we had to stand in an indefinable queue - which led to confusion. Unfortunately, Vienna seems to be overrun with tourists even in November.

The directions at the entrance are a help to get there. The morning schedule allows for comfortable entry. The upper level has a beautiful collection. Then we left through the gardens to the belvedere lot.

It was ok. We expected the rooms to be furnitured but it was just paintings. Didnt look up before sadly. Would be great if the rooms were presenting how they lived back then in the time.
