Nestled in the heart of Central Europe, Austria is a landlocked country bordered by Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. With its nine provinces and vibrant capital, Vienna, Austria spans across 83,871 km² and is home to nine million residents. The country's rich history dates back to its emergence as a margraviate of Bavaria, evolving into an archduchy in 1453 and later, a dominant power in the German Confederation.

Austria's longstanding culture is tied to its ruling Habsburg dynasty, which began accumulating provinces in the 14th and 15th centuries. From this period, Austria emerged as the birthplace of classical music, hosting legendary composers such as Ludwig van Beethoven, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Joseph Haydn, and Franz Schubert. Historical milestones include the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which prompted World War I and the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Today, Austria enjoys membership in the United Nations, European Union, and other international organisations, boasting a strong presence on the global stage.

When to visit Austria

Austria's diverse experiences make it an enchanting destination year-round, though the best time to visit depends on your preferred activities. For warm weather and outdoor pursuits, April to October is ideal, while winter sports enthusiasts can find snowy slopes from November to April. For a budget-conscious trip, October and November boast the most affordable prices, with a low season extending from November to March, excluding the busy Christmas market period in December and early January.

The Alpine skiing and snowboarding season flourishes during the spring shoulder months of April and May, while the rainy November provides a quiet backdrop for serene exploration. Regardless of the time of year, Austria's majestic mountains, vibrant cities, and historic charm offer unforgettable experiences for all travellers.
