Located in the east of Austria, Vienna is a wonderful place to base yourself if you're interested in taking a day trip or two through this part of Europe. The area around the Danube River offers vineyards and castles galore, making it perfectly suited to a leisurely day of driving or cycling through the lush landscape, but you can also head to charming towns like the spa town of Baden Bei Wien or the traditional wine village of Grinzing. However, you're not limited to staying in Austria, and many visitors also choose to venture out to cities like Prague, Ljubljana, and Bratislava.
