Sep 1, 2016Viennese Vibe
In 2016, the Mercer Quality of Life study named Vienna the world’s most livable city for the seventh year in a row. For this annual report, Mercer surveys everything from political and economic climate to medical care and recreational perks; and for another year, the Austrian capital is tops. Residents here enjoy affordable housing, widespread safety, a top-notch public transportation network and renowned education. Add world-class museums, beautiful parks, elegant restaurants and fine wineries within city limits, and it becomes immediately clear why Vienna consistently rules this specific ranking.

Sep 1, 2016Head to the Viennese Woods for Wine
The Austrian capital is the only metropolis with scalable wine production within its borders; there are about 1,730 acres of vineyards in Vienna’s northern woods. And it would be a mistake not to partake, especially because the Wienerwald (Viennese forest) is picturesque. For an active experience, many local tour companies can get you to the wineries by bike. It’s a bit more physically demanding because the topography is not flat, but operators can supply you with an e-bike to assist with pedaling some of those hills. Bike Experience Vienna runs a daily tour of the Viennese wine lands that combines wine with a bit of history. Once there, make sure you try the local wine specialty — Gemischter Satz — which is experiencing quite a revival. If you’re not familiar, a Gemischter Satz is essentially a type of wine made of many different grapes (sometimes up to 20) that have been planted, harvested and pressed together.
