Schönbrunn Palace

I can now understand why this Palace receives two and a half million visitors each year.  Some of the rooms were simply amazing in their grandeur and opulence.  This is one of my favourites.

The second shot features the modern Vienna skyline, looking across the Danube river towards the distinctive Harry Seidler Tower.  It's the tower with the metallic triangle shape on the roof, and was designed by the Austrian/Australian architect, Harry Seidler.
