Vienna, Austria

19.11.2005

Full of culture and coffee.. There were simply too many Third Man filming locations for me to take in in my time there.

Gasometer

These four old gas towers have been converted into student accomodation. This is where Nick is living.

A central street of Vienna

Just east of the Stephansdom.

The Cathedral outside Nick's University.

Vienna at night

With blurred bus

Josephsplatz

Remember the hit and run scene from The Third Man?

The National Library

Another monumental building.

The efficient visual communication of the U-Bahn

Helvetica everywhere.

The efficient seating of the U-Bahn

The overall effect is a bit sterile but it fits with the nature of the service.

The roof of the Stephansdom

Great colours.

The Riesenrad

Part of the Prater amusement park. Again, refer to The Third Man.

A great typeface in 'Der Standard'

Schloss Schönbrunn

This is the Kaiser's Palace from the days of the Habsburg Dynasty - these guys pretty much owned most of Europe at one point.

The famous Vienna nightmarket

Held outside the Rathaus (town hall).
