Weather of Arabia - Ismail Qasimi - Would you like to experience living as a king or a famous classical composer? If you choose the former, you will find yourself in Hellbrunn Palace or in the Mirabell Gardens. If you prefer the artistic lifestyle, you should tour the birthplace of Mozart and wander the streets of the old town. To meet what is royal and musical, head to Dom zu Salzburg.

So you are in Salzburg, Austria. Here are the best places to visit:

Altstadt (old town in Salzburg)

It takes half a day to a full day to enjoy this central area that contains some of the city's most popular places, such as Mozart's birthplace, the Salzburg Museum and many more masterpieces of architecture, markets and shops to see.

Mozart's birthplace, and Mozart's residence

A stop at the Mozarts Geburtshaus is a must. Mozart was born here in 1756, and the building now houses a museum chronicling the musical prodigy's years. As for Mozart's Wohnhaus (Residence), he wrote many symphonies, concertos, and operas.

Hellbrunn Palace

Hellbrunn Palace

Schloss Heilbronn is very popular, as its simple exterior hides treasures within the ornate rooms and ballrooms, especially the octagonal music room. Here you will learn about the lives of the Archbishops of Salzburg, former religious and political rulers.

Hohen Salzburg Fortress

It opened its doors to the public in the middle of the twentieth century, while it was originally built in 1077 AD in preparation for the conflict that existed between Pope Gregor VII and Emperor Henry IV, and there are several courtyards and three small museums.

Mirabell Gardens

Mirabel Gardens

This paradise is located on the eastern side of the Salzach River. Mirabellgarten has a number of attractions such as the Pegasus Fountain, the Garden of Dwarves and the staircase where one of the scenes of the movie "The Sound of Music" was filmed. Do not miss exploring the beautiful paths and taking pictures of the sculptures.

Salzburg Cathedral

Dom zu Salzburg rises like a gigantic building that testifies to the religion, power and wealth of this city. You will be impressed by its turquoise domes and towering façade. The current structure, which was rebuilt after being burned several times in the past centuries, is still an example of Baroque ecclesiastical architecture.
