What to see in Maritime Greenwich, a UNESCO heritage site, in a day

Greenwich is a scenic, historic part of South East London well worth visiting. The unique architecture, designed landscape, and association with the British monarchy over the centuries are just some of the features which make Maritime Greenwich a unique and significant place. Inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage Site in 1997, Maritime Greenwich is famous for maritime history, being the home of Greenwich Mean Time, Cutty Sark, the National Maritime Museum, the Queen's House art gallery, and London’s only planetarium. They all are within walking distance of each other, so you can easily visit all sites in one day. Enjoy some amazing views of the London skyline from Greenwich Park. Here’s my picks for the best things to see in Greenwich.

Melk Abbey, an awesome day trip from Vienna

Melk Abbey is one of the biggest and most beautiful European Baroque ensembles. It is located about 90 kilometres from Vienna and with the help of high speed trains it makes an awesome day trip from Vienna. Melk has played an important role in the Danube region since Roman times when a fortress was built there. The cliff where the abbey now stands was the seat of the Babenberg’s dynasty that ruled Austria from the 10th century to the late 13th century. In the 11th century, Leopold II of Babenberg presented the palace at Melk to Benedictine monks, who turned it into a fortified abbey. Its influence and reputation as a centre of learning and culture was spreading throughout Austria. In the early 18th century Abbot Berthold Dietmayr and his architects Jakob Prandtauer and Joseph Munggenast built a sacred palace upon the foundations of the medieval monastery.
