We discovered this pedestrian street as we headed from the Vienna Opera at Karlsplatz to the church at Stephansplatz. It was very active with visual delights.

| Four Rivers Fountain in Neuer Markt Square shows Lady Providence surrounded by figures symbolizing rivers that flow into the Danube. The statues, originally nude, were replaced with more modest versions by Maria Teresa. [Steves] |
 |
| Some of the buildings in the Neuer Markt Square are being renovated (right side). "The buildings all around ... were rebuilt after World War II. Half of the city's inner center was intentionally destroyed by Churchhill to demoralize the Viennese, who were disconcertingly enthusiastic about the Nazis." [Steves] |
 |
| Men's fashion |
 |
| Window display of coordinates. I like the black and white rose pins. |

We need to tear ourselves away from the chocolate window and move along the street!
