The Schönbruun Palace and Gloriette - Vienna, Austria

The Schönbruun Palace Garden Gloriette was once used as a focal point for the garden and also the dining and festival hall for emperor Franz Joseph I.
Today it is a popular cafe which we enjoyed for breakfast last month (March 2012).
A view of the Schönbruun Palace from the Gloriette is stunning.

Unfortunately the gardens haven't come to be so early in spring since this past winter was especially brutal in Europe.
A late spring, summer and fall view would be all the more beautiful!
