1) Donaukanal
Vienna
The Donaukanal is actually a decent-sized channel that breaks off from the mighty Danube at the northwest entrance to Vienna, curves around the edge of the old town, and then continues out to the far east of the city where it rejoins the main river. Since it looks rather like a river and passes through the centre of Vienna, many mistake the Donaukanal for the Danube proper. Regardless, the channel’s size and route make the waterway’s banks natural locations for urban riverside activities.
