A few more pictures

Salzburg is surronded by mountains. This tunnel originally started out as clearing a path through the whole mountain to the other side of town but quickly gave up an made a tunnel. The entrance is carved out of the mountainside.



This is the back of a theater but I found it very nice. Up at the top is part of pipe organ that was overpowering the theater inside. (Sometimes it pays to lurk around a tour group)











This is a famous bridge from the Sound of Music.



Although the city protects is historic buildings with a passion it seems when allowed to do something modern it is done extremely well.







Here is a panoramic view from one of the hills surrounding the city.
