Innsbruck - the alpine metropolis

If there was ever a city at one with nature and its mountain environment it is Innsbruck, and there are countless reasons for staying in the Tyrolean capital or one of its 25 nearby Village Resorts.

Innsbruck is the only major city in the European Alps, and offers a combination of culture, history and nature unequaled anywhere else. Timeless beauty in the mountains – Innsbruck’s 25 Village Resorts blend in perfectly with the natural environment

Architectural gems lurk around every corner of the Old Town including superb examples of Gothic, Baroque and Renaissance architecture, Imperial residences and museums.
The cultural wealth and the many attractions of the picturesque town center bear witness to the past glory and present beauty of Innsbruck. Visit the famous Golden Roof, the Court Church, the Imperial Palace, Ambras Castle, the brand-new Bergisel SkijumpTower and the well-known Swarovski Crystal Worlds.

    Bhai, What a beautiful place! I agree with you. This is one place with lots of history. Your style of writing in simple words with history is also commendable.
