A relaxed solo weekend in Vienna: a €13 standing ticket at the State Opera, the breathtaking Kunsthistorisches Museum and a breakfast spot worth coming back for. Picked by Liss Charlton, felt that as a Black woman travelling alone she felt completely safe and welcomed, and didn't get stares walking around. Made for first-time solo travellers.
To save money, standing tickets are sold close to the performance for about €13, instead of €200+ for a seat. The one-hour show was really good and the sound was beautiful, with subtitles on a screen in front of you. Standing gets tiring and the view isn't the best, but for the price it's worth it. Filming isn't allowed inside. (via Liss Charlton vlog)
Picked by Liss CharltonVienna's grand art history museum. The inside is breathtaking, especially the view down onto the domed café from the top floor. The queue outside can be long, so buy your ticket online, which is quicker and cheaper. (via Liss Charlton vlog)
Picked by Liss CharltonAll-day restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, with an English menu and plenty of options. Spent my last-day breakfast here was so lovely. The chai latte was one of the best and loved the runny eggs Benedict. Relaxed, with no pressure to rush. (via Liss Charlton vlog)
