My name is David and today I would like to  show you around my hometown.

Graz is the second-biggest city in Austria,  located in the southeast of the country.

It's a place that is really close to my heart.  I was born here …

… and I have often lived abroad,  but I always come back to Graz.

In the heart of the city stands  the Schlossberg, the Castle Mountain.

Here you'll also find the #1 symbol  of our city: the Clock Tower or Uhrturm.

According to some legends,  this clock has been guarding us …

Graz is a large, beautiful, old town.  One of the biggest of its kind in Europe.

It's a UNESCO cultural  world heritage site.

And throughout the city you can find about  fifty courtyards, big and small …

These courtyards must be discovered.  So be curious in Graz!

This is one of the highlights  of the old town of Graz.

The double spiral staircase  in the former imperial palace.

This unique staircase is a  masterpiece of Gothic stone masonry.

As you can see, there are no pillars anymore.  The entire construction supports itself.

Graz has a Mediterranean influence  and a vibrant outdoor lifestyle.

There are about 60,000 students in Graz,  who study at one of the many universities.

We have a lot of festivals,  electronic music and jazz.

The Austrian film festival takes place here,  so you'll never get bored in Graz.

We're now at a place that is very typical  for Graz. This is a sausage stand.

There are plenty in the old town,  and it's also a social thing.

Lawyers, construction workers, and both  young and old people come here.

This is my favourite sausage.  It's called Käsekrainer. Käse means cheese.

It's filled with cheese  and it's delicious. Mahlzeit!

You've seen quite a few parts of  the old town now …

… but Graz is also known for  its contemporary architecture and design.

The very young and creative scene is on the  other side of the river: the Lend district.

A symbol connecting these two parts  of the city is the Murinsel.

Since a few years ago, Graz is one of the  few UNESCO Cities of Design worldwide.

One very good example of that  is the Kunsthaus.

This is a contemporary art museum  for changing exhibitions.

We call it 'the friendly alien'. It looks  weird but doesn't harm the old surroundings.

We are now in the Lend district,  the trendiest part of Graz.

Here you'll find a lot of independent  labels, designer shops, art galleries, etc.

Young people try out different things  here and open their own shop.

You can feel there's a different  vibe in this area, making it unique.

One of my favourite shops here  is tag.werk, a bag shop.

My name is Beatrix Lorber,  manager at tag.werk.

We sell high-quality, handmade  designer bags …

… however tag.werk is also a social  project for young adults.

They learn to create things with their  own hands. This boosts their confidence.

Each bag shows who  designed and created it.

Since 2008, Graz has been the  culinary capital of Austria.

It's easy to see why.  We have a lot of farmers' markets.

The farmers all come from Graz.  The city has 800 farmers.

They come here to sell their produce  directly to the clients.

Here you can shop for fresh vegetables,  fruit, sausages, fish and cheese.

It's not just a market. It's also a  meeting place for people.

Now I've shown you around Graz city centre,  but its surroundings are also beautiful.

The southern area is known  for its wine.

The best place to experience the  wine culture is at a Buschenschank.

This one has been run by  the Kögl family for many generations.

In their Buschenschank, they serve their  homemade food, spreads …

… and most importantly,  their own wine.

I am sitting next to Tamara Kögl,  a member of the youngest generation.

We are a traditional winery. I've been  running it for ten years now.

Our products are organic.  We grow wine on 10 hectares of land …

This wine is from a single  vineyard and was made in 2013.

I will also give you a single  vineyard wine produced in 2011 …

… so that you can compare  the different harvests.

Sauvignon Blanc has given Austria  a great wine reputation …

… in this competitive market.  I love my job.

Ready for some typical  Austrian food now?

These are my friends. We're going  for some drinks at the City Beach.

I hope you enjoyed our day together  and will come back again soon.

Let's go for some drinks now.  See you around!
