Vienna, the capital of Austria, lies in the north-eastern part of the country on the Danube. It is Austria's largest city, with almost 2 million inhabitants. It is an administrative, cultural and tourist centre of international importance. The United Nations and many international organisations have their headquarters here. The historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, draws visitors with monuments from many different eras. Its temperate climate with mild winters and warm summers makes spring and autumn the best time to visit.
