Salzburg Travel Guide

Surrounded by lakes and mountains, few cities can match Salzburg’s fairytale setting. The Salzburg region is full of surprises – from its salt mines to its symphonies, from its fountains to its waterfalls, Salzburg is filled with drama, comedy, intrigue and passion.

The Austrian city of Salzburg is situated on the northern edge of the Alps, close to the border of Germany and few places can match its musical heritage. Salzburg is the home town of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and provided the settings for one of cinema’s most-adored musicals, The Sound Of Music.
