"Welcome to Salzburg!" a Salzburg Travel Page by Natrix

Salzburg is a rather small nostalgic city in Austria, famous for being the birthplace of Mozart. Salzburg is a major tourist magnet and definitely owes much of its magic to Mozart. Mozart wasn't so fond of Salzburg though, he considered it rather provincial, so he didn't live here very long. I wouldn't say Salzburg is provincial. It's traditional (for example you have these horse carriages all over town and horsepoo on the streets - to the dismay of the locals...), but yet cosmopolitan in a way, due to all the tourists and foreigners living there. Anyway, Salzburg has a lot to offer for tourists, especially culture-wise - for example there's classical concerts every evening - and is sure a nice place to visit!
