Salzburg

Salzburg is best known for 2 things: this is Mozart's birthplace; and The Sound of Music was largely filmed here. This city is actually smaller than I expected, but there is a lot here. Look for more posts.
The 1st picture looks upriver to the old town and the castle above. The 2nd picture is Mirabelle Palace and gardens, that probably look familiar from the SoM.
The 3rd picture is the Mozartsteg, a foot bridge over the Salzach River that is said the be one of Maria vonTrapp's "favorite things".
The 4th picture is the house where Mozart was born in the 2nd floor flat. (In the US, we would call it the 3rd floor.)
The 5th picture is a typical street scene and in the last picture is the daily market (except Sundays) in the University plaza.Leggi altro
