What people say
Marie Ouimet
"While in Vienna, listen to your inner child and visit Prater Amusement Park located in Leopoldstadt. The entrance to the park is totally free! You can have a stroll around and individually pay for the rides you want to do. You have to ride the Wiener Riesenrad Ferris wheel. It was built in 1897 and is one of the oldest operating Ferris Wheels in the world! The 360° panoramic city view from the top of the wheel is worth the money alone! You can also have a candle-light dinner or a cocktail and coffee break in a private cabin on the wheel! The opening hours vary depending on the time of the year, but they range from 09h00 to midnight."
