From Salzburg Street to Salzburg

Not yet a week back home, I travelled with some contacts from Xing to Salzburg. We used a Bavarian rail ticket (38€ for 5 persons = 7,60€) that was even valid till Salzburg. We met at Munich main station and then went by train for two hours. 

Shopping street

In Salzburg, we bought a day pass for public transport (3,20€) and took a bus to the historic centre. Short after that the group split and I found four other women who wanted to a bit of shopping. 


We started with a little decoration shop that was selling all kinds of Christmas stuff: candle holders, Christmas tree hangers and much more. The store was in a inner courtyard with a passageway to the street behind. 

There was a food market with fruits, vegetable, meat and fish. We stopped at a stand to buy warm sausages and at another to buy fruits and chocolate. We meandered through the streets until we reached a bigger place and went for coffee, tea and cake into Cafe Tomaselli.

There we ordered the drinks with the waiter. After that a waitress with a cake buffet passed by, so you could choose right by sight at your table what you would like to eat. 


When we felt warm again, we went out again for a tour of the Christmas market. We found several nice stands with hats, candle holders and liquor. In the centre was the dome and we went in to hear the choir sing Christmas.


Afterwards, we continued our shopping spree and I found a new pairs of winter boots.
