VRC Austria: Melk

The view of baroque style Benedictine Melk Abbey perched high above the Danube was visually stunning, as was the view of the town from the abbey itself.












Inside, we saw treasure after treasure displayed in glass cabinets.  The library filled with globes and books was fascinating. 












At last, we stepped into opulent abbey.  We were allowed to walk back to the ship via the picturesque town and a wooded path.
