Building of Salzburg

Following on from my previous blog posts about our trip to Salzburg last September, I thought I would share some more photos from our trip. These were all taken in the city of Salzburg. We spent a couple of days taking in the sights of this wonderful city.

We stayed at the Bloberger Hof http://www.blobergerhof.at/ guesthouse. We enjoyed our stay very much and the excellent breakfasts which set us up for the day.

The bus stop was just outside the hotel, which was just perfect for getting into see the city.

This is the Dom (or Cathedral).

This is the famous fortress that can be seen from most places in the city.

You take a funicular railway up to the fortress. This in itself was an experience.

As I’ve said before, don’t forget to look up for some outstanding views!

The river Inn flows through the centre of Salzburg, and was a lovely vista from the top.

A piece of modern art sat in harmony with the old buildings.

These buildings are something else. They are impressively built into the side of the rock face.
