Austria

Before visiting Austria for the first

time, most people have a vision

of snow-capped peaks, tumbling

cataracts, tilted mountain meadows,

gingerbread chalets and pretty

onion-domed churches. All these

exist in abundance, but Austria is

much more than alpine vistas and

appealing hillside villages. The

country, stretching some 700

kilometres from the Swiss border

on the shores of the Bodensee

in the west to the edge of the

flat Hungarian plain in the east,

encompasses rolling hills, broad

valleys, wide rivers, fertile farmland,

delightful cities, magnificent

Baroque architecture, as well as

some of Europe’s most spectacular

alpine scenery.

In the past the country wielded authority and influence far beyond its

physical size. The Habsburg dynasty – rulers of Austria for over 600 years,

built the Austro-Hungarian Empire into a formidable world power and at

the time were the most dominant force in Europe. Such wealth led to a

flowering of music, literature and architecture, a cultural inheritance that

visitors can enjoy today. The generous patronage offered by the

Habsburgs attracted European composers in the 18th and 19th centuries

– Beethoven, Brahms, Hayden, Mozart, Schubert and the Strausses all

came to Austria at some stage in their careers. Today, this rich musical

heritage lives on in the form of the Vienna Philharmonic, the unrivalled

Vienna Boys’ Choir, the Musikverein and the Konzerthaus.

Austria

remain the main attraction for most visitors, Austria’s cities reward

exploration. Vienna, the capital, as the seat of the Habsburgs, is built on

a suitably imperial scale - there are palaces, art collections, museums

and splendid 19th century architecture lining broad tree-shaded avenues.

Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart, is an intoxicatingly Baroque city whose

skyline is punctuated with countless ornate spires, domes, belfries and

turrets. Further west, Innsbruck, situated in the valley of the River Inn at

the intersection of several Alpine passes, harbours a precious collection

of mediaeval buildings where the upper storeys of the houses almost

meet above the narrow streets.

Friendly people complement the spectacular scenery, excellent food, well-

developed resorts and high standards of services and facilities. Wherever

you stay you will experience ‘Gemütlichkeit’, an Austrian term meaning a

combination of hospitality, contentment and cosiness.

Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart, is a picturesque city straddling the

Salzach River and sheltered by surrounding mountains. The cultural

capital of Austria, Salzburg is set amidst natural beauty and combines

the charm of a smaller city with the extravagance of a cosmopolitan

centre. The old town is a Baroque masterpiece and everywhere glorious

churches and splendid palaces and mansions reflect the city’s

distinguished history. Salzburg literally means “salt fortress” – Salzburg’s

riches were based on the revenues from the nearby salt mines. These

riches were the foundation for the city’s glorious architecture, which is

why Salzburg has often been called “the Rome of North” for its

outstanding beauty.

All sights are within walking distance from the spacious old city (Altstadt).

A few miles to the south of the city are the historic towns of Hallein and

Werfen and to the west are the lakes of Salzberger, which are especially

worth visiting during the spring and summer when the wild flowers are

out.

Places of interest: Old Town, Bishops’ residence, Getreidegasse with

its wrought iron guild signs, Mirabell Castle, Mozart’s birthplace and
