The pretty hometown of Mozart and The Sound of Music comes into its own at Christmas and market stalls that look much as they did when they were first set up way back in the 15th century. This is definitely a winter wonderland.

About a 2 hour train ride away and well worth it to see the birthplace of Mozart and the location of the filming of Sound of Music.
