THE NEW YORK TIMES : “Summer is when Salzburg, the compact Austrian city of medieval alleys, majestic Alpine views and just 150,000 residents, bursts to life. The century-old Salzburg Festival, a six-week celebration of classical music, opera and theater, is in full swing until the end of August, giving music lovers yet another reason to make a pilgrimage to Mozart’s birthplace. The neo-Baroque Salzburg State Theater, one of the festival’s main stages, is fresher after a renovation, and more historic sites are undergoing renewal.
What may well be Europe’s oldest restaurant is rejuvenated every year with stylish, contemporary décor. And a 17th-century palace, with a new restaurant offering contemporary Austrian dishes under the stars, shows how comfortably tradition and innovation coexist in this city.”
