8. the other Vienna - the original city wall<\/h2>\r\n

If you want to discover historic Vienna, you don't always have to go to a museum. In this case, history is so close at hand - in the Stubentor subway station<\/strong> on the U3 line.

We recommend a visit during the day, when the subway is empty and you can marvel at the old walls in peace and quiet and experience Vienna in a different way.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
