8 dec being a public holiday... Will the sights and shops in town be closed? Dining and supermarkets? How abt Christmas markets? Pls advise. Thks!
Dec 8th is in fact a public holiday, EXCEPT for people working in shops, so all shops and supermarkets will be open, Christmasmarkets are open as well and museums etc. are open like on every holiday !
Thanks! Put my mind at ease ;)
Rhere are a few exceptions, some shops won't open. So if you are going to some special shop, it may be closed. But the majority will be opened...
We want to travel to Salzburg from Salzburg on 8 or 9 Dec. I believe it's apublic holiday. Will all the sightseeing places be open or is it a bad day to go there? Are the markets definitely be open ? How do we travel from Munich as we don't want to take a tour as we are pensioners and too expensive. I saw sometime ago the fare return was Euro +-. How do I get on that siter again ? Could you please email me the website address ? We desperwately want to go there whether by train or bus. I think the trian is much better and quicker.
Please help
Thanks and regards

Most shops will be open on december 8. Although some of the supermarkets,such as BILLA and Merkur will be closed all day long. But you can experience Vienna just as on any other day. All Christmas markets are open as well.
Enjoy Vienna!
While the ordinary Billa might be closed on dec. 8th,at least 2 of their shops will be open every day of the year:
1)Praterstern 09.00-21.00 (=9.am till 09.00pm)
2)Airport, about the same times
We stopped by to take some picture at this pool because we saw beautiful murals on the wall, little that we know…it a horse pond or bathing pool for horses a long time ago. Well that interesting though :)) Lucky horses!!! The City & The Weather
Before heading to Salzburg, I found this web site very helpful:

The Hohensalzburg Fortress dominates the city view and is worth a peek. You can either take the funicular or brave the hike up the steep path. At the top you will find a museum, guided tours and a cafe with one of the prettiest views in the world!
In the evening, if you are inclined, go to the marionette theatre for a show. This is not a kids' show: it's real Mozart opera. My mother, cousin and I had planned to go to the marionette theatre after a day of touring the city. We ran short on time and realized we would not have time for dinner before the show. So we stopped off at the local Julius Meinl for some bread, fruit, wine and cheese so that we could munch back at our room after the show.
We found our seats near the front of the theatre and sat & chatted until the curtain went up, with our grocery bag next to me on the floor. As the show went on, I could hear the people in back of us sniffing - and my mom and my cousin too. My mother leaned over and said, 'I think the cheese kind of smells.' As I was closer to the door with a slight draft coming from it, I didn't smell anything. 'Are you sure?' I asked, as I opened the bag for a whiff. . . Just then, what could easily have been a green cloud erupted from our grocery bag. The smell of very ripe cheese wafted out and drifted slowly toward the back of the room. As the show went on, we noticed that the people directly behind us had moved, despite their excellent seat! It was all we could do to smother our laughter (and the smell) for the rest of the show!
Afterward, we went back to our room with our groceries and had a very nice snack!
To me the architecture of Saltzburg appealed very much. Many houses had wall paintings on their walls, not to mention the beautiful flower arrangements under the windows, narrow shopping avenues and decorated water fountains.
Go to an Austria Tabak. There are so many that you can usually stand in one and see the next from where you are! They're good for postcards, stamps, little souvenirs, and many sell bus tickets (which are cheaper than on the bus or from the machines).
In Salzburg the people are very polite and all the people that I met spoke English (although some fluently, others only a bit). However, I think that when visiting another country you should try a few words in their language. So here are some basics in German:
Hello/Hi - Guten Tag/Hallo
Goodbye/Bye - Auf Widersehen/Tschuss
Good Morning - Guten Morgen
Good Evening - Guten Abend
Good Night - Guten Nacht
Do you speak English? - Sprechen Sie Englisch?
Yes/No - Ja/Nein
Please - Bitte
Thanks - Danke

Q: Language "hello! Is it more polite to say "guten tag" or "Grüss Gott" in Salzburg, Austria? Henry :)"
A: "Couldn't say which is more "polite", but I'd say "grüss Gott" is more common."
