Helpfulness
Only small cars may drive through the village of Hallstatt - all the others have to take the rather newly built tunnel.
The main problem is that you will not be aware of this narrow place - close to the Protestant church with the steep tower - you will just see it, when you have entered the street already and have to drive backwards carefully and slowly, as also all the pedestrians use the same street.
The most narrow place is 2,2 m wide and 2,25 m high. !!

Edelweiss is something special, maybe the best known alpine flower world-wide, as the main theme of "Sound of Music" is "Edelweiss, Edelweiss..."
Picking of Edelweiss is a crime and will cost you a lot of money, when they catch you - NO matter if they catch you on the spot or at the airport !!
In Hallstatt they seem to have the real ones, been taken down from the mountains with a big part of the surrounding soil.
Edelweiss-seeds, that you are able to buy at some of the shops will NOT give you such plants, but look different.

The only danger here is wanting to give up the rest of your trip and spending your time here.
