When looking for beautiful and interesting travel destinations, European cities come to mind, captivating with their cosy atmosphere and architecture. The city of Salzburg is one of these attractive cities for tourists, located in the centre of Austria. It is the 4th largest city in the country.

It has a rich historical heritage, museums and architecture to prove it and immerse you in a fabulous atmosphere. What to see, where to go, and what to do in Salzburg is reported by Wyandotte Daily.

Salzburg Cathedral

This cathedral is built in the Italian Baroque style, with a luxurious interior and intricate marble sculptures. You can learn more about it by taking a local tour.

Salzburg Festival

This world-class event takes place every summer. To immerse yourself in the world of music and art, it is recommended to take care of tickets and reservations in advance.

Hohensalzburg Fortress

The fortress, which is perfectly preserved to this day, is located high on a hill overlooking the entire city. It can be reached by the Festungsbahn funicular or on foot.

Mirabell Gardens

In this garden, guests of the city will find trimmed lawns, lush flower beds and fountains. It is worth visiting for the peace and beauty created by nature itself.

Mozart Museum

Classical music and its main representatives are one of the reasons to visit Salzburg. This city is the birthplace of Mozart, who was born here in 1756, and therefore it is simply impossible not to visit the museum dedicated to the famous composer.

Kapuzinerberg hike

This is a picturesque hill that offers an amazing view of the city. To reach it, tourists will pass through dense forests and ruins, which makes this hike quite mysterious.

Hellbrunn Palace Gardens

The bizarre fountains and gardens of this place intrigue most travellers. There are guided tours where you can learn about the symbolism and history of this place.

Salzburg Marionette Theatre

Talented puppeteers are able to surprise not only adults but also capricious children who have hardly seen such entertainment today. In this place, you can plunge into the world of storytelling and enjoy the fairy-tale atmosphere.

Boat tour around Salzach

You can see the most beautiful places and relax during a river trip. During the tour along the Salzach River, tourists will see Mozart's residence, unique landscapes and learn about the history of the city.

Old Town (Altstadt)

These narrow cobblestone streets are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, impressing with their architecture and taste. Here you can discover wonderful courtyards and visit many interesting shops.
