Vienna’s charm acts like a spell. The baroque interior of the Church of St. Charles Borromeo is a dazzling sight, as is the incredible Gaudi-inspired Hundertwasserhaus. Proof that the Austrian capital has more than one magic trick up its sleeve is a visit to the aptly named Museum of Illusion, which holds many surprises in store. In the baroque decor of the Imperial Palace, a show by the Spanish Riding School is a real treat.
In the evening, the Vienna Opera promises the magic of Tchaikovsky’s Queen of Spades. This sublime opera, in which omens and love combine brilliantly, promises an operatic event: soprano Anna Netrebko takes on the role of Lisa. At her side, tenor (and husband) Yusif Eyvazov is the ideal partner.
