Fun for a 17 year old

I will be traveling with my 17 year old son to Vienna over the Christmas Holiday. I am looking for something FUN for him!! I can%26#39;t wait to see all that has been mentioned, but I am afraid after two 2 days of museums and so forth he will be bored. Any suggestions?

Without knowing the interests of your son it is very hard to make recommendations, but a few possible things:



Perhaps too many museums but these are a little different





The Arsenal- The Museum of Military History- filled with good exhibits from arms and armor to tanks.





The Technical Museum



As the name states - intersting exhibits , antique cars, railroad items, steam engines etc.





The Museums in the Neue Burg section of the Hofburg Palace



Arms and Armor



Ancient History



Old musical instruments.





17- a visit to the %26quot; Mall%26quot; of course



Lugner City



Donaucentrum



Gasometer





all nearby with public transport.





The usual collection of shops and fast food. Music stores . Cinemas nearby - often with english language films.





Swimming at Thermalbad Oberlaa.





A day trip to Semmering by train- a nice ski town- ski or just have a look!





Too old for the Zoo at Schonnbrunn?





A ride on the Giant Ferris Wheel in the Prater.
