TimTravels - Vienna: Schloss Schoenbrunn + Gloriette
I was really overwhelmed by the many comments and positive feedback on my London travel posts. In todays TimTravels episode I have something special for you! I decided to give away one souvenir from each destination to one lucky Steemian!
You will find the description on how to win the giveaway at the bottom
After London it was about time to travel to my next destination: Vienna.
To me there are many similarities between both cities. They have many glorious and historical buildings, both are metropolises with people from all around the world and they have an AAA infrastructure. I could continue with the list but it would become as wide as the ocean.
I started my Journey early in the morning and arrived at 8:25 AM in VIE airport. From there I already knew my destination: Schloss Schoenbrunn. You get there by taking the metro to station U4 Schoenbrunn.
Although it was really early I wasn't the first, there was even a huge crowd already!
After few steps from the metro we arrived at the famous palace Schoenbrunn. I looked beautiful but didn't blow me away. Yet.
This is the palace from the front side. Glorious right? But what didn't blow me away was about to come. The exciting part was yet to explored behind the palace! Are you ready?
For those of you who don't like to walk you can take horse-drawn carriage
Right behind the corner awaits you one of the most breathtaking parks I have seen so far. An oasis within a big city. Perfectly cut trees and bushes, colorful flowers, incredible sculptures and statutes and much more!
Inside the park they had a maze and labyrinth. I couldn't resist to check that out. My first time actually. Would you find the way out? There is a simply algorithm on how to get out of every maze! Do you know it?
Now it's your turn! Win an "I love Vienna" shirt in your size! Tell us what traveling means to you and why you should get that giveaway! Deadline is the 22th of June, 8PM UTC.
Thanks for following my travel posts! If you enjoy them feel free to follow me and resteem! See you next week in another county!
Yours,
Tim

It's wonderful to travel! Keep it alive!
This steem was a lot of fun what a great experience! I'm happy for you 🕊
Thanks :)
I thought that a place like this only exist on scifi movie haha..
It's real :)
up voted and followed awesome
Sounds like a fun citytrip!
It was :)
I’ve got a feeling I have been there too thanks to your photos. Thanks)))
Did you enjoy?
Ooh thanks for sharing this with us! Oh gosh, I haven't travelled for too long. I really need a vacation this year. I'm really torn though. I'd love to visit Portugal around the Steemfest times, but november is just a bit too late in the year for it to feel like a summer vacation. I also have two other train trips that seems really awesome. One tours three Italian cities and the other tours through Austria and Switzerland. They both seem awesome!
So much to see, so little time and funds! I will do them all one day (just not sure I'll be able to visit Steemfest).
You got to go to Amsterdam, such a vibrant and open minded city in so many ways! Oh shit just checked your profile and you are from the Netherlands ahahha
Yes :D It's been years since I last visited Amsterdam though. I was a kid back then. I don't know, it just doesn't appeal to me really. We have big cities up north aswell and some are quite pretty and/or vibrant, so Amsterdam just seems too far for what it's worth (in my head atleast).
Really, go to Portugal. At that time of the year it's perfect - not too many people around, mild climate, lower prices.
(Not Portuguese, BTW)
I might do, but I'm not sure I can wait that long for a vacation anymore. Plus, my boyfriend also has to enjoy the trip and going on a vacation twice is a bit too pricey :D
Cool !!
That labyrinth really looks amazing
Great post @timasid , thanks for sharing
I thank you!
Well, fascinating place indeed! I hope you tried in the end, the ice cream at Cafe Gloriette. Just delicious!
I didn't :(
Next time! ;)

Those white horses tho :P
Sweet right?
Yep, perfect picture. The horse seems very curious haha
Thanks to your photos I am impressed with Schoenbrunn. I'm sure that Nikon has contributed for technically excellent photos, cool camera. Upvote and resteem!
Thanks! I'm impressed by the Nikon :)
I think that I'm a Nikon fan, but I do not know why, I always buy Canon. I really don't know what is my problem:) ...
lol :) I used both.
What a lovely and peaceful place to visit!
Good photography skills too!
Keep up the good work ! :D

Your photography gets better by the day... That being said, I love the park you took photographs in. Beautiful nature in such a busy city as you said. I am going to Malta this summer. Already counting the days to make photographs of the amazing landscape over there! Actually the first time I will fly this far :)
Please show us Malta then!
I definitely will! Have to wait one month before I go though... In the meantime I will try to shoot other cool stuff :)

thanks for sharing part of the world with us. The picture are beautiful. Waiting for the next trip.
I studied abroad in Vienna and visited Schoenbrunn as well. It was an amazing place and these are some great pictures!

Amazing!
This are some great shots ! Keep up the good work
I just cant get over the nice quality of your pictures !
Me too!
Stunning photos, keep em coming.
seeing your work has made me question my photography skills :D kidding. wonderful work you have done :) followed
I bet you are good :)
Amazing city!
Many years ago I went with my husband to Vienna and was overawed at seeing the Palace Schoenbrunn. As we walked inside the Palace and were shown around I had a spooky feeling of deja vue. I suddenly knew the layout of the rooms upstairs which surprised me as I had never been there before. Lovely place and beautiful gardens. I am a newbie and will write about my travels too.
I wasn't inside the palace, next time I should. Welcome to Steemit!
Very nice place i hope can visit some day
Let us know!
Oh nice thank you i let you know when i come around ^_^
Hope we can have fun together.

What a great idea. Putting mirrors in the maze makes for some fun photos. I wish they did that here in some of the Australian mazes. Thanks for sharing your glorious day @timsaid.
That would make some people crazy
But crazy good :)

So many mirrors inside the maze..that must have been rather disorientating! At least you got to make a fun picture out of it :)

What mean traveling for me?
For me traveling means freedom. Everyone who can travel the world can see different cultures, different people and so on. This people see the world with different eyes.
Wow!! Schloss Schoenbrunn looks amazing. Would love to travel to this place someday. Being a D750 user myself, you have clicked some amazing pictures. And like many people say, pictures not only makes memories but also lets some fall in love with them.. Im awe struck :)

Great photos,Tim.
Seems like you are taking full advantage of your camera. That gate and the 2 pillars looks like some entrance to a Pokemon Tournament. And those trees trimmed like Popsicle also looked amazing!
