I cannot say anything that has not been said already about this amazing building. I was to impressed with architecture of the outside of this building that I did not take the time to go inside. It is not possible to capture what your eyes can see in a single picture. It is absolutely stunning. This is an absolute must to see and to get the full experience the Hoftburg has to offer you need two days to enjoy it all.
Ein Tag Wien und den ganzen Tag nur in der Hofburg. Was für ein Komplex!! Erst in der Bibliothek: ein Muss für jeden Bücherfreak, dann eine Führung ,,hinter den Kulissen der Hofreitschule". Und dann noch im Sissi Museum.Hier war fotografieren leider verboten. Eins schöner wie das andere. Und mehr als einmal musste ich schlucken bei so viel Schönheit ( allerdings auch bei den Eintrittspreisen. 50€ weg wie nix. Aber ist o.k.
I really enjoyed this museum and learning more about Empress Elizabeth (Sisi) I did the English guided tour and you could tell that our guide really enjoyed talking about the subject and he made it fun to learn more and also Kinda show us what to look out for when we were walking through the rooms before we even started so that made it really nice since some of the rooms got to be a little tight and it was hard to See everything or it took a while to get to the front to see the item. I’d say this is definitely a tour that’s worth doing especially if you like this time. And learning about old Kings and Queens;Or this case an emperor and empress.
I didn't go inside, but the building's design and the view are really impressive and enjoyable, even from the outside. The architecture catches your eye, and you can still appreciate its beauty without entering.
We didn’t go inside the museums but still enjoyed looking at this marvellous architecture. It is so grand yet the details of the ornaments are so delicate and impressive.

The Hofburg palace is quite imposing from the outside. Like many other locations in Vienna, it has a beautiful architecture.
We didn't get inside, but we still admired the structure.
I definitely recommend you getting to this place, as there are also many other interesting architectures all around.
