• Red Bull was co-founded by an Austrian entrepreneur.
• For the architecture buffs among you, don’t miss the Baroque architecture of Salzburg’s “Old Town”, a recognized UNESCO World Heritage site since 1996.
• The snow globe was invented by Erwin Perzy, an Austrian producer of surgical instruments, in the late 1800’s.
• While he was born in Salzburg, Mozart spent a lot of his adult life in Vienna. So, take some time to check out Mozart Haus Museum.
• Then later, you can then check into the Vienna youth hostel where they show “The Sound of Music” every evening at 8:00.
• Located just outside Salzburg, the Eisriesenwelt, an ice and limestone cave, stretches more than 42 kilometres under the Alps.
• Hot springs, vineyards, and historical sites are just a few of the sights you’ll encounter in Styria, a region of one million plus in the southeast corner of the country. The area is also well-known for it’s mining and forestry, agriculture, and culinary tourism.
