Travel deals Salzburg - the Motzart city!
The world renowned cultural city of Salzburg lies in north-western Austria in the federal state of Salzburg, which is situated near the German border and spans both sides of the Salzach River. The city’s particular geographic location in the heart of the mountains and lakes of the Salzkammergut resort area bestows it with its own special charm.Salzburg has made a name for itself internationally with the annual “Jedermann” festival performance. The Mozart city was not only the birth place of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart; the famous “Mozartkugeln” (chocolate-coated balls of marzipan) were first created here, as well.
The Hohensalzburg Fortress is the landmark of the magnificent, former royal residential city, from which you can enjoy a lovely view of the city. It offers a diverse programme with concerts, exhibitions, art galleries, theatre, museums and much more. But Salzburg doesn’t only offer cultural entertainment. The famous “Getreidegasse” (Grain Alley) has been the most important commercial street for ages and is now one of the most important shopping streets in Salzburg. Visitors are invited to shop and enjoy their time here.
