Rough Guides welcomes Austria to our outstanding line-up of European destinations

Venture across every inch of this prosperous and stable central European country as the Rough Guide whisks you from the cosmopolitan capital, Vienna -- packed with cultural offerings and throbbing with late-night musikcafes -- to the awesome Alpine backwaters of the Tyrol. In between, we take you where other guides don't -- such as the wine-making villages along the Czech border -- and we stretch your schillings to suit your budget in what can be an expensive country to visit.
