Mum's Mini Euro Road Trip - Part 2 Salzburg

After Munich, we drove to Salzburg, stayed the night and checked out Salzburg the next day. We did the Maria's bicycle tour, since Salzburg's the setting for the Sound of Music. (mum's choice) It's actually a great tour since you see all the main points and get to ride on a bike. And who doesnt' love bikes?

View of the castle


The Monet statue - yes this was actually commisioned, but not exactly what the city had in mind...

The horse bath. See on the right how they can walk in and how they can exit on the left. Original frescos




See the angles laying the crown on Mary?


The church Maria and the Captian were married in

Where they hid after the concert





The Von Trapp house - used for all the backyard shots and the shots of the lake.


The Von Trapp house - used for all front and entrance shots










The original gazebo from the movie.






















Ich liebe unicorns! and yes, i had to wait impatiently for 5 minutes while a 4yr old had her photo taken.

A much more 'official' Mozart statue.
