Salzburg is a pretty destination, especially the Old Town. There are no structured road grids or grand boulevards like in some major cities. By contrast, the pedestrian-friendly place is dotted with sculptures, monuments and fountains, and flanked by the imposing medieval Hohensalzburg Fortress. Grand abbeys, well-preserved baroque architecture and sprawling well-manicured gardens juxtapose with unassuming buildings in pretty pastels.
