How To Explore Salzburg

Posted in Austria, Europe, TravelTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Salzburg is compact, yet big enough to make you fall in love with this charming city. This compact city has everything you need to have a great time: a stunning Old City on its left bank, and a bustling New City on its right. One can easily navigate the city via different modes of transportation – be it tram or bicycle. However, the best way to explore the city is on foot. Be it taking a coffee break in a small coffee shop or capturing the beauty of the city through my Canon DSLR, I thoroughly enjoyed my sojourn. Salzburg is divided by the Salzach River, which is lined with medieval buildings on its left bank and 19th-century Neustadt on its right. From countless cafes to bars, there’s something for everyone! So if you want to visit Austria next time, make sure to include this little gem in your itinerary!

Hellbrunn Palace – A Spectacular Delight

Posted in Austria, TravelTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

If you’re visiting Salzburg, don’t miss out on the chance to visit Hellbrunn Palace & Trick Fountains. The massive palace was built by Prince-Archbishop Markus Sittikus von Hohenems in 1613-19.
Situated in the South of Salzburg, this spectacular palace was only meant for use as a day residence in summer, as the Archbishop usually returned to Salzburg in the evening. The permanent interactive exhibition “GrandDelight – The unexpected world of Markus Sittikus” depicts numerous aspects of the castle and its history, which one can enjoy through an audio guide. One of the major attractions of this Palace is Trick Fountains, which consist of several water automats, grottos, and fountains. The main objective of Sittikus was to entertain his guests through these Fountains. One can enjoy the Fountains thoroughly with the help of an audio guide. I used a ‘Hop-On, Hop-Off’ bus from the city’s downtown to reach this place.

With Love From Salzburg

I am sharing a few beautiful images of Salzburg, where I stayed for three nights. Words are not enough to describe this picturesque Austrian city, the birthplace of the world-renowned composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The weather was just perfect for photography. Fantastic architecture, lovely cafes, and exquisite bars make this city a wonderful tourist attraction. There are many popular spots that I could not visit due to lack of time. However, I got to spend some quality time in Mirabell Palace,
Hohensalzburg Fortress, and Hellbrunn Palace, which I will cover in my next blog posts. I am sure you will fall in love with this place.
