Vienna 2


This church was blinding it was so gaudy, nearly every surface was guilded.

This crypt housed many of the Hapsburgs. I thought the tiny ones for still-born babies were the creepiest.

Can you imagine this coffin 200 years ago before the martyr's body had completely decomposed? Stinky!

One of the only art museums I didn't visit in Vienna: the Contemporary Art Museum.

These parks surrounded the Upper Bellvue Museum, which housed several Klimt paintings. We got there before the museum opened and wandered through the gardens just long enough for me to remember how much i hate pristine gardens and topiary bushes.
