The River
Vienna
The River
Vienna (Wienfluß) is a very important part of Viennese life. It
rises in the Vienna Woods, then flows through
the centre of Vienna until it reaches the River Danube.
The Viennese love their river. Along its beautiful banks,
one can cycle, fish, walk and jog.
But, the
River Vienna is not always friendly. It can also be dangerous.
Sometimes it floods and its current grows stronger.
But, all
in all, the River Vienna, which is marvellously clean, is
a wonderful river for people and nature alike.
