Vienna is a city waiting to be discovered, and that goes just as much for its shopping streets. As you stroll through the streets, you’ll find not only major brands and small boutiques, but also shops steeped in tradition. There are places that offer much more than just a typical shopping district.
Mariahilfer Straße, for example, is very lively. The streets in downtown Vienna, on the other hand, are very elegant. Every shopping street has its own character. If you take your time, you’ll discover not only unique shops but also cafés, hidden courtyards, and that special Viennese way of life.

When it comes to Vienna’s shopping streets, there’s no getting around Mariahilfer Straße (Google Maps). It’s one of Austria’s best-known and most popular shopping streets and connects Westbahnhof to the heart of the city.
With international brands, flagship stores, bookstores, restaurants, and cafés, you’ll find everything you need for a great day of shopping here. At the same time, Mariahilfer Straße thrives on its diversity. Large stores alternate with small local spots and cozy squares.
