Salzburg is a beautiful, baroque city located right on the Salzach River, with parks, beer-garden-salzburg.JPGhistorical sites and wonderful music venues, plus shopping and dining spots that won’t put a huge hole in your pocketbook. This is the place of Mozart’s youth and you will see his imprint across the town. Salzburg is also considered a world-class live music destination. In summer, it hosts the famous Salzburg Festival, bringing thousands to enjoy live, classical music. Tiny Salzburg offers more than 2 ,000 live performances in its churches and palaces every year. And the memorable film “The Sound of Music” was filmed in this city and in the surrounding hills. You can even take the “Sound of Music Tour” to visit all the filming locations.
