This is a photo of the Kogelberg, which is a hill situated between the towns St. Margareten and Rust. It is a gorgeous spot with wonderful views of the Neusiedler See and it is a nature preserve. It also features a quarry from which the stone to build Vienna's most famous architectural monuments was extracted, as well as a series of sculptures. The rainbow certainly enhanced the experience.
Through one of the sculptures you can see St. Margareten below.
A ubiquitous feature of the Burgenland: Vineyards.
After our hike, it was time to go to the Cselle Mülle (pronounced something like 'jelly-moo-lah'), an old mill that is now a cultural center. Even the dove-house that you see here is a registered historical site.
Although the roast pig was quite tasty...
the real reason that we went was for the Kroatische Folksmusikfest (Croatian folk music fesitval). Not a bad day, all things considered! What do you think? Write a comment!
