With approximately 250.000 inhabitants,
Graz is the 2nd largest
city of Austria,
situated in the region of Styria,
180 km (110 miles) south-west of Vienna.
It has four universities (the University,
the University of Technology,
the Medical University of Graz,
and the University of Music and Dramatic Arts),
a pleasant old center that is not yet
overcrowded by tourists, and nice hills and mountains nearby
to the north, plus a wine growing area with rustic wineries to
its south.
The Old Town of Graz is one of the best preserved in Europe and was awarded
World Cultural Heritage
by UNESCO in 1999. In 2003 Graz has been
European Cultural Capital.
