We only had an hour here, which wasn't enough to see more than the Upper Belvedere and its Klimt exhibit. But it was the highlight of my visit. the gardens are lovely and vast, good for a leisurely stroll. It's a bit far from the Sudtiroler Platz subway, 15 minutes maybe? The Sudbahnhof is a bit closer.

Beautiful palace, lovely grounds, with a small cafe and art exhibitions inside (Miro when we were there). Take a blanket and a picnic, and fall asleep under the sun in the gardens. Lovely. More

Not as crowded, when we were there, as many Vienna attractions and definitely worth seeing. Klimt's "The Kiss" is its most famous piece on display but there are several other noteworthy pieces from a mutitude of artists, including Monet. The upper Belvedere is a spectacular building and the grounds are splendid as well. (We did not tour the lower.) More

not as big as the other palaces in Vienna, it is very strangely locate d in a Viennese neighbourhood, on the right and left if you cross the road you go into the blocks of apartments. the gardens are wonderful and I think the palace is mostly used as a museum. At the time I went they had a Gustav... More

Well worth avisit on the outskirts of Vienna city center. The Kiss by Gustav Klint is housed here and it is well worth the small effort to go nd see it for yourself. Lots of other wonderful paintings are housed here as well More

Our group of four spent several hours meandering inside the Belvedere and the gardens. Of course The Kiss is a sight to see but my favorite had to be the large paiting of Napoleon Crossing the Alps. There was also one of a dog with his head on a table longing for a piece of the food on a plate.... More
