One day trip to Salzburg - Austria

Tagesausflug nach Salzburg
25 December 2006

Salzburg is the Austrian biggest city, which is directly located on the border to Germany. From Munich, Salzburg can be reached within 2 hours with the train.

We left Munich at 9 am using the Regional Train so that we can travel with the cheap "Bayern Ticket". That ticket costs only 25 € for 5 person, is valid for 1 day for the whole Bavarian state and exceptionally until Salzburg central station.

The first place we visited was the Mirabell Garden. It doesn't look nice, but I heard it is a beautiful garden in summer, in which the garden is full with the flowers.

From there we took the bus and went to the pedestrian street in the other side of the river. Amazingly it's full with tourist. Although it was a holiday and all shops were close, the whole city was full with people.

Too bad we didn't see all of the tourist attraction there. We just walk around the city. Although it's a birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozard and there are many museum about him, we didn't visit any of them. After that we went to the Cathedral of Salzburg. It's just like other churches in Germany.
