Why fly to Graz?
Graz is a city with many faces, a veritable mish mash of the beautifully old and the daringly new. The Schlossberg, a leafy green mountain smack bang in the middle of the city with a bell tower on its peak dominates the skyline surrounded by one of Europe’s best preserved old towns. By contrast, since being named as the European capital of cool in 2003, more cutting edge building projects have popped up along the skyline including the blue, a spaceship-looking Kuntshaus, dedicated to contemporary art and Murinsel – a multi-use playground in the middle of the Mur River.
