Austria Gloriette Schönbrunn, Vienna
As described in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloriette#The_Sch.C3.B6nbrunn_Palace_Garden_Gloriette this is a beautiful building on top of a hill with a park surrounding and a fountain in front.
Photography Tips
As the building is on a hill, you can shoot it from a slight upward angle from all sides. It is lighted at nighttime, so I'd come at the blue hour. Probably worth a visit all year long. But in winter it's easier to have fewer tourists disturbing the view.
The building is only half lit up, the lights on the other half of the building are broken. I talked to the caretaker on my way out, and he told me the lights have been broken for years and will probably not be fixed any time soon.
See the the seen pic for details.
