Salzburg

Samstag, 3 Mai

Willkommen zu Salzburg. The hills here are alive with much more than just the sound of music:




The building that greets you at the railways station.
 Welcome to the Sound of Music's famous Mirabell Palace and Garden:


 

Hey! Saw Bernini's original in Rome. "The Rape of Proserpina."
 Came across some dwarfs:


The one the kids tap in the Sound of Music.


In the city...
These guys are intense in a match!



Franziskanerkirche

Only in Salzburg is this the graffiti.




Salzberg Cathedral.


You could say we had a nice view for lunch.


Took a post-lunch stroll up to the Salzberg Castle:



Got a splendid tour of a private garden owned by a friend. You know, just the President of the Salzberg Festival:



They're grandparents too!


Mozart's Geburtshaus (where he was born):

Mozart's violin in the room he was born in.

Opera set miniatures


 


The guy who wrote "Silent Night" lived here.

Gothic quarter.





Lots of lovers were here. Auf Wiedersehen, Salzberg!
