Innsbruck - Host city to two Winter Olympics

by hundwalder - last update: Jul 24, 2005

Just a short visit, but great memories

However, I greatly enjoyed my short visit to the capital city of Winter sports. Innsbruck and the Tirol region hosted the Winter Olympics in 1964 and 1976. I admit to remembering both of these games. I will soon post a photo of the mountain used for the downhill skiing events both times.

more later !

Pros:"Lots of old and new world charm - great people and architecture."
Cons:"They wanted too much for a train ticket to Bressanone"
In A Nutshell:"worth a visit or a long term stay."
