Prater is an amusement park in Vienna. The oldest and most famous of them is the Ferris wheel. In total, the Prater Park offers more than 250 attractions. The Prater is one of Vienna's landmarks, located between the Danube River and the Danube Canal. Many tourists dream of visiting it. The main “pedestrian artery” of the park is the central alley, 4.5 km long, along which 2,500 trees are planted. The alley starts from Praterstern Square and ends at the Lusthaus restaurant.
