Us inside the concert hall. This place was really pretty. It had painted murals on the celling, marble statues of famous composers, golden statues of angels, etc. It was unbelievable and the orchestra sound fantastic! They played David's favorite symphony so the night was quite perfect.
These are the honorary graves of Beethoven and Mozart. Right beside these two were several other honorary graves to Brahms, Shubert, and Strauss. (These are famous composers of the classical and romantic period)
After visiting the cemetary, a group of us decided to explore the city and try and find the Scholss Schonbrunn (which is a palace) and this is what we found. We walked around and it had a lot of gardens that reminded us to the palace in Schwetzingen. We walked around the palace and little did we know of what was to come next....
THIS! All of us gasped in amazement! It was breathtaking to say the least. The grounds were huge. They had a zoo in one side, a full maze & labrynth made of tall shrubs, several gazebos and cafe/restaurants. It would probably take a full day to look at everything here. We only had an hour but simply walking around the gardens was good enough for us. We were more than glad that we decided to try and find this place.
This is actually an "outtake" of the hand full of picture we tried to take. Believe it or not, this is the best one. Haha! It was really windy so that made it difficult. We like this one though.
