Walk through the Swiss Garden, a wooded park beside the Belvedere in Landstraße. Follow its paths past ponds and open lawns, and spot the elephant and Chopin sculptures along the way.
Full description
The Swiss Garden in Landstraße is a large urban park created after the Napoleonic Wars, now given over to wooded paths, ponds, wide lawns, and a scattering of sculptures, among them an elephant and a statue of Chopin. It sits beside the Belvedere complex, and reviews describe it as a pleasant place for a stroll or a rest, with attractive autumn colour, though some find it less polished than the nearby palace gardens.
Open around the clock, it works well as a short thirty-minute stop for couples and families.
