An amazing Baroque church we happended to stumble into. The exterior was very unassuming.
Talk about a window seat. How beautiful is that?
The stain glass windows in the gothic Dom Cathedral were gorgeous
Salzburg is probably best known these days for the setting in "The Sound of Music." However it was also the hometown of Mozart, boasts amazing Baroque architecture, and is framed by the amazing Alps.
We probably got the worst weather of our whole trip in Salzburg. It more or less was a steady hard rain throughout the whole day.
The three above view are from the hike up to Hohensalzburg Castle
Views from inside the Salzburg Cathedral (you can see it's green domes in the above city view images)
I thought the capital detail was really unique.
Mirabell palace
Amazing gardens abound
Possibly one of the world's most elegant McDonalds
Closer to the cathedral
St. Peter's Cemetery and Catacombs is a really special site. You can see the catacombs built into the rock face.
A few of the Cathedral from within the catacombs.
St. Peter's, the Cemetery, and the Cathedral as seen from the catacombs.
You can read more about Salzburg here. As always - thanks to my boyfriend Chris for these gorgeous photos.
