Salzburg Austria is well known as the city for the filming of “Sound of Music” and the birthplace of Mozart.
After watching the movie “Sound of Music” whilst traveling to Salzburg, we visited some of the places where the movie was filmed:- the Mirabelle Gardens, Residence Square, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s birthplace at No. 9 Getreidegasse Street. We also saw the Salzburg Duomo and the Salzburg Castle. And since Christmas is just around the corner, there was also a Christmas Market where we were given some free time to roam around and enjoy the snowfall.
