The painting hall is on the third floor, with painting halls on the left and right sides and a coffee shop in the middle. The art gallery is on the second floor, on the left side of the entrance. Another seems to be the Egyptian Heritage Hall on the second floor, on the right side of the entrance. It is recommended to enter the viewing, art has no national boundaries. Whether it is paintings, sculptures, or embossing inside the museum, it is worth seeing. In the face of art, many languages are pale, even if you just enjoy a painting quietly, even if you don't know who the author is, you can feel the strong artistic atmosphere. Some people exchange paintings in the museum, some students are listening to the teacher, and some tourists are taking pictures.

At the highlights of the museum, together with the art history made a choice in many museums in Vienna, we have locked in the Museum of Art History. One reason is that there are many things to look at. When the two protagonists in "Before Sunrise" swam around Vienna, they passed through here, but they did not go in. The Habsburg dynasty had been in power for more than 600 years in Vienna. On both sides of the Ring Road, the magnificent architecture stands out, and it still shows the glory of the family. The Vienna Museum of Art History is one of the many magnificent buildings, and the other is a palace-like building. It is the Vienna Museum of Natural History, both of which are Vienna's proud Museums. Into the magnificent building, start a journey of time and space. From the museums of the city of Alexandria in the third century BC to the backyards of the Roman aristocracy more than a hundred years later, precious artifacts and works of art have always been good for the royal family. Exciting Egyptian and Oriental art, exquisite ancient Greek and Roman sculptures, sculptural and decorative art showing the full picture of the Renaissance and Baroque art, Drer, Rembrandt, Titian, Tintoretto, Carava The outstanding paintings of masters such as Joe and Bruegel, the Vienna Museum of Art History is like a Noahs Ark full of art treasures.

There are eight branches, the main building is opposite to the Hofburg Imperial Palace. Maria Theresa Square, with seven branches in Vienna and Innsbruck.

German Renaissance paintings such as Albrecht-Drer, Old Lucas-Cla Anakh, and other important exhibits include the old Peter-Bruger, the world's only old, Johannes-Vermeer, Rembo Long, Raphael, Caravaggio, Velasquez and so on. The Egyptian, Oriental Pavilion, Louvre and the British Museum are far fewer tourists and have a strange atmosphere, as if time is wrong. A closer look at the top pillars here is also a stone pillar from Egypt. Here you can see Titian works, Raphael's works: "The Virgin and Child on the Grass", Michelangelo Mericida Caravaggio works: ## or ##Wait.
