I'm going to Vienna for 4 nights next week/end. Would be really grateful if anyone can recommend things to do/places to go. I'm staying in the centre, but would love to rent a car if there's anything nice to see outside the city. I'm not planning on skiing on this holiday.

There was a thread about Vienna here a while ago but the search function isn't bringing it up.

There's so much to see and do in Vienna, you won't be lost for things to do.

A place I really like is Hinterbrühl, south west of the city. It's a beautiful area and is fanous for it's underground lake where they built Henkel aircraft during the war. You can go inside and tour around buy boat

We had a great long weekend there a year or two ago:

If you're thinking of going to the Spanish Riding School - book in advance or check when shows are and availability.

Schonbrunn Palace is worth a visit.

The travel cards are great for getting round on the trams and metro

We did a dinner and concert thing (there seemed to be plenty) which was nice if it's the sort of thing you fancy. For more info (others are probably available...) http://www.soundofvienna.at/sound/10.0.html?&L...
