A rural scene in Salzburg, Austria. (ThinkStock)
What to do in Salzburg
The image is enduring: Maria and the children frolicking through gardens, singing as they dance around fountains, through landscaped archways, and up and down stairs. The setting is Salzburg, and it’s as delightful as it appears on the big screen, a fact that even those who aren’t fans of The Sound of Music (which includes most Austrians, interestingly enough) can’t deny. Follow in the footsteps of the Von Trapps by paying a visit to Schloss Leopoldskron, the palace where they fell out of the boat into the lake when greeting the Captain, or Schloss Frohnburg, used for exterior shots of the family’s residence. And of course the Mirabell Gardens, where they found their voices and belted out, “The hills are alive…” After all, this is a mountain town that makes it easy to sing its praises.
