Kartner Strasse, Vienna

Kartnerstrasse is the most famous shopping street in Vienna and connects the two main squares of the city: Karlsplatz and Stephansplatz.

The walking path from the State Opera Theater to the most beautiful Cathedral of Saint Stephan (Stephansdom), is one of the itineraries that you should not turn down on your visit to Vienna.

Among countless souvenir shops and open cafes, this paved street seems to truly be the preference by millions of tourists every year that visit the Austrian capital.  Also the Viennese seem to appreciate the party atmosphere and the stream of people that travel there every day.

This really is the vital heart of Vienna and it is not a coincidence that major brands compete to snatch up a shop window in this area of the city.

Advice from Divento…

The illuminated palaces and neon colored shops make Kartnerstrasse already more suggested in the evening hours when the Viennese are out and about in the local places and restaurants and the street artists perform in the middle of the tourists.
