Danube valley
The Wachau, a wine growing area renowned throughout the world, begins just where the magnificent baroque Abbey Melk arises on the southern bank; it is also a pleasure garden, and one of the most beautiful river valleys. In 2000, the Wachau was declared part of the UNESCO World heritage. This unique work of art, in its entirety, extends up to the city of Krems 40 km downstream.

Rich history, extraordinary wealth of cultural heritage and amazing opportunities for enjoyment. The picturesque landscapes, the alternating rhythms between narrow stretches and wide expanses of vineyards and orchards have been fascinating visitors from all over the world. And continued to inspire thinkers and artists alike, making this region a preferred meeting point for connoisseurs and epicureans.
