Salzburg, Sound of Music Tour 2015

I really enjoyed the Sound of Music tour, I have always loved the Sound of Music movie. It was interesting going to the different sites where the film was done and learning about how the movie was changed from real life. They took you out in the country to where the wedding scene was filmed and the country was beautiful. If you like the Sound of Music I recommend this tour.

Salzburg Catherdral Residenz 2015

Information
For hundreds of years the prince bishops used the Salzburg Residenz as a magnificent place of abode and as a means of presenting and representing their political status. Visitors requesting and audience with the regents were exposed to the rulers demonstrations of power and arbitrary authority. The only individuals allowed into the most magnificent rooms were people the prince bishops ‘could bear to see". Thus was the rule.
The Residenz is spectacular and well worth the visit.
 
 
 

 

Salzburg, Sites-St. Peter's cemetery, Kapital Horse pond, Mozart's Residence, Golden Ball 2015

We saw many sites and attended mass at Salzburg Cathedral even though we could not understand the language it was amazing with the robes and music.
