Goldener Saal Wiener Musikverein
兰兰莹莹个天Chinese children and adults seem to be particularly fond of Vienna's golden hall, the afternoon I went to the building, a group of Chinese children outside the photo punch card. The ticket I bought on Trip.com was the cheapest of all the ticket grades. It sat in the final row of the hall, but it also gave me an excellent angle to observe the whole hall. During the concert, the audience was intoxicated at the end of each song and the musicians played extremely well. I was very impressed.
