Art lovers call Salzburg the Golden City of High Baroque; historians refer to it as the Florence of the North; and music lovers know it as the Festival City - birthplace of Mozart and home of the world-famous Salzburg Festival. Framed by mountains, crowned by the Hohensalzburg Fortress and divided by the turquoise Salzach River, the Salzburg landscape could not be more stunning. Throughout the country are glorious architectural reminders of the once-powerful Hapsburgs, who dominated central Europe for seven centuries. You'll call Salzburg perfection!
