You climb into a light aircraft as the low morning sun gilds the red roofs of Graz. The Mur River threads the city like a silver rope, the Schlossberg’s clock tower drops into view, and the rolling green of Styria opens beyond — fields, vineyards and karst ridges pushing the eye toward distant low mountains. The plane lifts, and the city contracts into an organized grid of Baroque blocks and modern bridges; the countryside unfurls in terraces and forested folds that seem to dare you to map them by sight alone.
