Directions

The vast baroque garden of the Schönbrunn Palace stretches up a hill to the Gloriette monument with sweeping views over Vienna — one of the finest panoramas in the city. The park itself is free to enter and walk through, with fountains, mythological sculptures, a maze, and the world's oldest zoo on its grounds. It is extremely popular with tourists, so arriving early morning or on a weekday is strongly recommended to enjoy the grandeur without the crowds.
