Salzburg
Great little city. Great castle and the museums having to do with Motzart were nice. Stay away from the Sound of Music Tours, they require singing along. Odd.
Insider Tip:Go to the salt mines, they were super fun as was the Panaramic Museum

Salzburg is awsome
I regret not to go to the konigesse but salzburg is such a beautiful city, It's old, beautiful but humble. You can do some hiking along the fortress and there's a old bakery next to the mill near to the karlesquare. I did join the sound of music tour. There're not many sights to visit but the tour guide is quite funny. But if I could choose again I would prefer the going to the palace where the king always tried to make fun of his guess, and actually the glass house in SOM is there

Winter Getaway
Salzburg is beautiful in winter. My daughter and I had a great time. The weather was cold and rainy but the beauty of this quaint European city cannot be ruined even in inclement weather. Visit off season and avoid the crowds.

Charming
Charming doesn't even begin to describe Salzburg. This has to be one of my favorite towns ever. It is just so cute and pleasant to walk around aimlessly.
Insider Tip:I took the Sound of Music tour, which was good, but be warned that it doesn't actually take you to all the sites in Salzburg itself. Although most of them are easy to find and accessible, so just make sure you allot enough time to take a look at some of the sites not covered by the tour.

nice view
there should be a lot of beautiful place here, but it was raining during my staying, and I had to leave here just only 1 day. so travelers should stay here at least for 2~3 days.
