Austria - Salzburg


WELCOME TO SALZBURGER! *yummy*

nothing much in salzburg except it gained its popularity as being mozart's birthplace. now we learnt another new thing, dont we? for mozart was an austrian! oh, and not to forget the famous "Sound of music" was filmed here as well.
austrians speaks german, btw.

we visited the mirabell gardens of the palace here. of cos the palace is not at all grand here for the nice ones are all at vienna. remember Schönbrunn Palace?

@ the mirabell gardens

yup, mozart was borne in this building


me lapping up all the action on the street. it was greece vs russia that night. apparantly all the greeks were here! and no russians in sight. :)
oh, so skip slazburg if you are tight on time for east europe trip. ha.

To be honest Mozart was not really an Austrian in those times. When Mozart was born and lived in Salzburg, the place was an independent nation. Mozart even once said "my ass is a Viennese". You can prove it by looking in history books. Just wanted to let you know.
