We all know what Swiss cheese is, right? That yellow stuff with the holes in, of course. And good old Gruyère is as familiar as the neighbor's cat, isn't it?

But what about some of the lesser members of the fromage family, like Etivaz? Hands up if you can pick that one out of a police lineup.

Insider Guide: Best of Vienna

Posted: 09 Dec 2012 08:00 AM PST

Vienna's elegance and tradition find their greatest expression in the Inner City, or more formally, the First District.

Its three square kilometers are chock-full of stunning architecture made up of palaces, museums, theaters, and churches. Most tourists stay in this small area of Vienna to see the major sights, then head out thinking that's all there is.

Pity, those people missed out on seeing what Vienna is really about by exploring the outer districts.
