A pair of Baroque palaces set in terraced gardens, the Upper Belvedere housing the world's largest collection of Gustav Klimt paintings including The Kiss. The gardens between the two palaces are free to stroll; the art collections are ticketed. Come for The Kiss but stay for the Vienna 1900 and Austrian art, and note the Upper Belvedere gets packed midday.
