Getting There

It is easy to navigate through the districts of Vienna, and the easiest way to get to Leopolstadt is via the U-Bahn.

From here, walk down the tree lined streets and walkways and arrive in the Prater region to the north or the Augarten to the south. Buses and trams also go to the second district. Once you arrive in Leopoldstadt, you can easily walk to all of the nearby attractions.
