Tranquil, carrying the reflection of the gigantic mountains – Lake Hallstatt is the epitome of picture-perfect. Click a dozen photographs of the lake before going on a boat excursion.

7. Belvedere Palace

 

Oh, hello beautiful. #belvederepalace

Summer residence of Prince Eugene of Savoy, Belvedere Palace is where you will find the greatest collection of Gustav Klimt’s paintings. The impressive architecture of the palace along with the fountains and the lush grounds are a wonderful spot to photograph.

8. National Library Austria

Housed inside the Hofburg Palace, Austrian National Library is the country’s largest library and the intricate baroque decor inside the library is unlike anything you have seen before.

9. Hallstatt Lutheran Church

Evangelical Hallstatt Lutheran Church is the focal point in every picture of Hallstatt and you could easily spot the sharp spire. Rightly so, your holiday in Austria would be incomplete without a picture of the church.

10. Bregenzerwald

Overflowing with hiking trails, the region of Bregenzerwald is an amazing place to visit. But that is during summer. In winter, the region transforms itself into a magical skiing destination and opting for a husky tour is the best way to explore.

11. Vienna Opera Museum

A lover of operas and stage plays? Then a visit to the Vienna State Opera house is a must. But don’t stay inside the venue forever, the exterior of the structure shimmers in the night and is the right time to click that royal photograph.
