Salzburg is a pretty little place, even in winter. Its biggest claim to fame is that, in 1965, The Sound of Music was filmed here. Most of the tourist sites revolve around locations used in that movie. Unfortuately, one learns that the movie had almost nothing to do with reality other than that the Von Trapp Family Singers did come from Salzburg. Of course, the more cultured folk might remind you that Mozart was born here.
