Italo flair with cobblestone pavement. Modern art on the river. Young people and Styrian culture. In short: Graz rocks! At creative street festivals in summer. In futuristic art buildings and hip pubs.
For anyone who finds Vienna too big, Graz is the place to be: sympathetically manageable, but in spirit a big city. Take a look at restaurants, cool fashion, ice cream parlours and the trendy districts of the city.

The trendy lendviertel

The right bank of the Mur is the “cool kid” of Graz: hip, a bit vintage, creative and trendy. We'll tell you in which bars the young scene meets for an aperitif, which art centre is particularly creative and which farmers’ market is the hotspot of the district on Saturday mornings.

Graz is not New York. But when it comes to shopping, the Styrian capital is at least as creative and diverse as the Big Apple. With eco-fashion, design shops, space for creative souvenirs and recyclable rubber shoes.

As a hipster in Graz

Hip, hipper, Graz. The city is rather small, but the young creative scene is big. And accordingly it is teeming with nice third-wave cafés and weird bars. The crowd meets in international restaurants, in summer over an Aperol in the park.
