Moved to Salzburg, Austria.

I will travel by train to Salzburg, Austria, the birthplace of Mozart.
It's surprisingly expensive if you buy it normally, but I reserved it a while ago, so it cost 19 euros (approximately 2,590 yen).

Salzburg city center.

I am walking around the city of Salzburg. It is a beautiful town.




Evangelical Parish Salzburg Christuskirche

I went to the Evangelische Pfarrgemeinde Salzburg Christuskirche, which is on the other side of the river, but it seems like it was closed at that time, so I left.




University of Salzburg Church (Collegiate Church, Kollegienkirche, Universitätskirche)

I went to see the University of Salzburg Church (Collegiate Church, Kollegienkirche, Universitätskirche), which is located in the city center.

It seems that this church was originally quite deteriorated and has been renovated, so the interior was white.




Hohensalzburg Fortress (Salzburg Fortress, Festung Hohensalzburg)

Today, I went to Hohensalzburg Fortress, which is located on a hill.
You can get there quickly by taking a short cable car. The view is truly amazing.

It is said that the fortress has never been conquered militarily. This is understandable, considering how huge and tall it is.
If you were attacking it from the ground, it seems like you would only have options like a siege or some kind of trick to get the gates opened.

There were some routes with a limited number of people, but thanks to going early in the morning, I was able to visit smoothly.


Salzburg Museum.

Today, I went to the Salzburg Museum.
It is not very large, but the piano exhibition, the display of various musical instruments, and the exhibition related to Mozart were interesting.




Panorama Museum

I went to the Panorama Museum, which is in the same building as the Salzburg Museum.
This place is small, but you can enjoy a 360-degree view of Salzburg from a circular platform.

Actually, you can see the same view from the tower of Hohensalzburg Fortress, so if the weather is good, it's better to see the real thing.




Salzburg Cathedral (Dom).

Visit Salzburg Cathedral (Dom).
This is a cathedral that is used regularly, but the upper floors also function as a museum.

The structure is a bit confusing, but you can enter the museum "The Dom Quartier" through the entrance next to the cathedral. You can also enter "The Dom Quartier" from the building next door, and the museum is connected on the upper floors, so you can see both sides from either entrance.

On the other hand, the first floor of Salzburg Cathedral (Dom) itself is free to enter (with optional donations). It's confusing.




Parish Church St. Andrä

I happened to see the Parish Church St. Andrä in the town and decided to stop by.
It looks like a local church, but it is quite large, and inside, there seemed to be a vocal practice session.




The Dome Quartier.

I entered a museum called The Dom Quartier.
It is difficult to understand its positioning, but it seems to be a place that houses many art museums/museums, and allows you to see them all with a single ticket.

Photography is not allowed inside.
In the museum area, famous paintings are displayed.
From there, I went to the second floor of the Salzburg Cathedral (Dom), where I saw the pipe organ up close, and then I saw the treasures of the church in the surrounding corridors and rooms.
After that, I returned to the main building through the corridors, where I saw more artworks and the former residence of the ruling archbishop.

It was difficult to understand its positioning, and I almost skipped it, but I'm glad I went.
