The brand new Museum Quarter is getting most of the hype these days, and not without reason. But it's worth making the effort to step beyond the inner city and check out this stalwart of Vienna's cultural scene. Of course it's got Klimt's 'The Kiss' but there's lots of other great stuff too. And the view over Vienna is fantastic.

The building itself is a key work of Viennese Art Nouveau with its beautiful laurel leaf gilt dome roof. It is a must for Klimt fans as it hosts the famous Beethoven Frieze.
It also hosts a number of important contemporary art exhibitions. I think it provides a nice contrast to the more traditional art galleries in the city.
