Graz
Graz is the capital of Styria (Steiermark) and the second largest city of Austria. Graz maintains a balance between its illustrious past and modern present and features spectacular architecture from all periods, while the warm and sunny climate influenced by the closeness to the Mediterranean and positioned in a valley makes it a pleasant city to visit most of the year. The City of Graz, Historic Centre and Schloss Eggenberg, is a world heritage site.
