Discover the fascinating capital city in just 24 hours with an Innsbruck Card. The best place to start your tour of discovery is in the city centre by the gleaming landmark of Innsbruck, the “Goldenes Dachl”. The old part of the city is one of the most popular photographic images of Innsbruck with its colourful facades, bay windows and pergolas, surrounded by an impressive chain of mountain peaks over 2000 m in height. For a great view over the roofs of Innsbruck and into the surrounding mountains, it is worth climbing the 148 steps of the mediaeval city tower. Take a walk to the Hofburg with its Hofkirche church, one of the most impressive sights, then past the Landestheater and spend a little while in the romantic Hofgarten. If you want a little shopping tour, the best place to go is the newly built Kaufhaus Tyrol where you will find plenty of top brand shops. At the end of your discovery tour, head up to the Seegrube or the Hafelekar on the Nordkettenbahnen lifts to 2334 m above sea level. Enjoy, live, and be amazed.

Shopping in Salzburg
Something for everyone, whether it be the shopping centre with its huge selection and diversity of shops or the designer boutiques. Find a bargain or two in the designer outlet on the edge of the city, or stroll amongst the shops in the old part of the city with family tradition in the romantic ancient alleys in the city centre.
Unser Tip: Visit the many traditional manufacturers in the Getreidegasse, bringing the narrow alleys magically to life. Perhaps you will find a little gift for yourself or those at home.
A visit to the Café Konditorei Fürst - Alter Markt is an absolute must. Even in the 21st-century, the original “Salzburger Mozartkugeln” Mozart balls are made by hand using the same production process and recipe as always. The Konditorei Fürst is also famous for its chocolates and truffle specialities.
