Vienna City Guide

Useful Magazines There is a huge variety in Vienna’s restaurant and bar scene. Its coffee houses (“Kaffeehaus”) enjoy a worldwide reputation. Every taste is cared for. Due to the numerous places and quick changes in this field we would like to refer to local magazines or special Going-Out-Guides. + Falter – lifestyle, shopping, restaurant and entertainment information in print and online (www.falter.at) version (in German) + www.stadtbekannt.at – online magazine with lifestyle, shopping, restaurant and entertainment information (in German) + The Vienna Review – an English journal of news, culture, lifestyle and opinion covering the life and times of Vienna and Austria in print and online (www.viennareview.net) + www.wien.info/en/shopping-wining-dining – comprehensive online guide to Vienna, including going-out information and lists of restaurants (in English; other languages available also) + wienlive – lifestyle, shopping, restaurant and entertainment information in print and online (www.wienlive.at) version (in German). Learning German Being able to understand and communicate in German will help immensely to become familiar with life in Austria. Numerous institutions in Vienna offer courses such as ‘German as a Foreign Language’, to learn German for general conversation or for business purposes. Instruction is given by native speakers who often apply the ‘total immersion’ system, in which only German is spoken in class. It is essential to obtain comprehensive information from different suppliers in order to meet individual needs and to find out which school, kind of instruction and level would be appropriate.
