Mozart Museum: a must-see????
by lichinga
Mozart Museum: a must-see? I'm not sure, when I reached it, with the long queue of anonimous tourists, I did not feel pushed in..... Maybe I lost some important first-hand document of Mozart's life, but I found his spirit walking around in the streets. The city centre, the Old one, is dominated by two hills. On the top of one hill: a huge fortress, on the top of the second a monastery, while the third is decorated by small palces and a lovely church. Amid the hills, river Saalbach flows across the buildings surrounded by two green slopes on which it is a real pleasure to have rest in an autumn sunny days. When leaves begin to colour and fall, when the Sun is not so hot and the air is fresh.

Sound of Music might be one of the most famous films but most of the population in Germany, Austria and Switzerland either haven't heard of it or dislike it. So it might not be appropriate to talk too enthusiastically about the film before local people as it does contain quite a lot of inaccuracies.
