Hey, Twin Fam! Roz and Niaz, your Iranian-American architect twins, here with our Vienna 2025 recap! This city's all about elegance and cozy vibes—perfect for us design geeks.
Classical Culture
Culture here is pure class—classical music floats through the air, and horse-drawn carriages clip-clop past. We caught a street violinist near Stephansplatz and felt Vienna's soul. The people? So warm—café staff swapped tales about Mozart over schnitzel, and one asked about Persian poetry (twin win!).

Coffee House Culture
Coffee culture's unreal—hours sipping melange at Café Central felt like a Persian tea sesh with a European glow. Food was a treat: schnitzel with lingonberry jam was crispy perfection, sachertorte's chocolate layers had Niaz swooning, and Roz lived for the apfelstrudel's flaky warmth.
A perfect Viennese afternoon: coffee and sachertorte
Imperial Architecture
Architecture was our playground. Schönbrunn Palace's Baroque symmetry and golden halls had us sketching—those gardens are royalty goals. The Hofburg's imperial scale screamed power, while St. Stephen's Cathedral's Gothic spires and tiled roof had us climbing the tower for epic views.
