But if you are a die-hard fan like I am, Salzburg promises to be a sweet childhood nostalgia trip! Plan your Salzburg travel for about two days, and you can easily visit all Salzburg attractions.<\/p>\n<p>I arrived at Salzburg Hauptbahnhof &#8211; the main railway station after boarding a train from Munich. At the information office, I picked up the Salzburg card &#8211; that guarantees free public transport as well as a one-time admission fee to the Salzburg attractions. &#8220;Don&#8217;t you want to book the Sound of Music tour?&#8221; the lady at the desk asked me, a little surprised that I had not even inquired about it. &#8220;Nah! Think I&#8217; ll figure out the itinerary myself&#8221;, I grinned back at her, confident about all the prep I had done for this trip. With an evening train back to Munich, I had chalked out the following Salzburg itinerary.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-23104\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Salzburg2-1024x617-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"617\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87); background-color: #ffffff;\">1) Salzburg Hauptbahnhof\u00a0to Nonnberg Abbey<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Maria Kutschera, on whose life the movie &#8220;Sound of Music&#8221; was based, was a novice nun at the Nonnberg Abbey, the Benedictine monastery founded in 714 A.D. by Saint Rupert of Salzburg. It is the oldest female convent north of the Alps. From Nonnberg, walk over to Fortress Hohensalzburg (or Salzburg Castle), a large medieval castle built on the hill Festenburg.<\/p>\n<p>The best part is the aerial views of Salzburg that you can catch from the Salzburg castle. Great spot to take Insta-worthy photos of the town.

An interesting piece of trivia &#8211; the famous musician, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was baptised at the impressive bronze baptismal font here. The three cathedral gates representing Faith, Love and Hope and the Seven Bells (each with its own name) are other noteworthy Salzburg attractions at the Dom. I headed to the first floor to take a few landscape mode photos &#8211; an attempt to capture this grandeur!<\/p>\n<p>There is an impressive modern art installation at Kapitelplatz, a sprawling square near the Dom.

After checking a few recommendations, I chose Cafe Mozart &#8211; a traditional Viennese coffee house. Known to be popular with artists, it has a relaxed vibe, and the food here is delectable! There is a different lunch menu each day &#8211; with a combination of soup, dumplings, pancakes et al. Do not forget to order the desserts from the Patisserie here &#8211; the Wiener Apfelstrudel (or the Apple Strudel) is legendary!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-23109\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.sg\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Wiener_Apfelstrudel-1024x928-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"928\" \/>\u00a0<em><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Weiner Apfelstrudel.<span style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">CC\u00a0 BY-SA 4.0 \/\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Wiener_Apfelstrudel.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Burkhard M\u00fccke<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>With that terrific-calorific indulgence, I decided to clock a few steps walking down Getreidegasse. This is Salzburg shopping central, with charming old houses, traditional inns as well as international retail stores. The most famous address here, undoubtedly, is No. 9 Getreidegasse. Mozart, a child prodigy who grew up to be among world&#8217;s greatest musicians &#8211; was born here is 1756. The house is now open to visitors, with a Museum showcasing various family mementoes, memorabilia, and portraits. I was excited to see two musical instruments that once belonged to Mozart &#8211; the violin and the clavichord.<\/p>\n<p>[tabs]<\/p>\n<p>[tab title=&#8221;Address&#8221; icon=&#8221;entypo-location&#8221;] <strong>Address: <\/strong><span style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222;\">Getreidegasse, 5020 Salzburg, Austria\u00a0<\/span>[\/tab]<\/p>\n<p>[tab title=&#8221;Operating Hours&#8221; icon=&#8221;entypo-clock&#8221;] <strong>Operating Hours: <\/strong><span style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #222222;\">Monday to Friday, 10 am &#8211; 6 pm | Saturday, 10 am &#8211; 5 pm.

All I wanted to do was to dance to the foot tapping tune around the Pegasus Statue Fountain, down the leafy avenues lined with golden autumny trees, through the landscaped gardens, and along the gladiator statues. (I never did &#8211; blame the crowds!).
