' it was the birthplace of Mozart. With much of its central city
relatively untouched for centuries, Salzburg also offers the
chance to see magnificent architecture in abundance.
Mozart, however, is very much an element of Salzburg, and can't
be forgotten very easily. There is Mozartplatz, with a big
