Salzburg , 28-29 January 2008

Who could have forgotten the evergreen "Sound of Music" which remains one of the best ever produced musical.And here i am in the town where this 1965 film was shot - Salzburg. The best town i have visited so far.

Fairy-tale like small town with cobbled street , from Gothic and Renaissance to Art Nouveau architectural heritage and horse carriage , these are a few of my favourite things...

Charming little town , where Mozart was born

Salzach River

Town of Salzburg

Festung Hohensalzburg (fortress) perched on top of the hill ,
overlooking the whole town

View from top the hill , with the Alps behind

Postcard-like scenery

Leopoldskron Castle , used as the Trapp family home.
Leopoldskron lake where the children were boating and later fell into it.

Nornberg Abbey , where Maria was a novice here

The Gazebo , where Liesl was singing "i am 16 turning on 17..."

Lake District

Remember the scene where the children were clinging on the trees?


Wedding church of Mondsee

Mirabell Garden where Maria and the children sang "Do , Re , Mi"

Mouth drooling apple strudel with vanilla ice cream
