Each installment of Ben's Tours takes you on a visit to a special place. This time join me on the sprawling grounds and gardens of Austria's Melk Abbey. An ornate, breathtaking, yellow beacon, the massive complex sits atop a hill and only gets more impressive as you approach. This functioning Benedictine abbey began life as a palace in the early 1700s, and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site open to tourists.
