Beautiful colored town

Kitzbühel is famous for the worldcup-skiing races that are held here every year. At this time of the year (late january) the little town is full, no chance to get a place to sleep. A lots of proms come here, too, to see the races or spend their own skiing holidays in the Kitzbühel mountains.
Next to skiing and looking for proms I love a lot walking through the centre and admireing all the designer-stores and beautiful tyrolian architechture.

Pros and Cons

Pros:beautiful houses, nice flair, many sports activities
Cons:can be very crowded in winter, expensive
In a nutshell:very nice in summer and winter, but not for shopping!!!
