Yeah the prices keep out the immigrants. Yeah I said it.
I'm allergic to angels and peanuts.
@@andym28 We gotta hike up the prices even more then. Too many immigrants have been coming in the last 10 years.

Yes, Sound of Music a fantastic movie, very enjoyable indeed

Does figuratively count
Fabulous review of my favorite locations in beloved Austria. Thank you!
Love Rick Steves channel & programs as well.
I watch Rick Steves so much that I had to check if I'd seen his Austria videos. I don't think I've seen this yet!
...so tremendously enjoyed this elegant movie of beautiful extravaganza of music, art, history and enchantment of everyday living, greatly thankful to charismatic Mr. Rick Steves for making marvelous Europe possible, love ❤️ you...
Halstatt was heaven on earth. Unbelievably beautiful
Last summer, I sat in a Vienna music hall, listened to Mozart's music being played by a 6 piece ensemble. No speakers, perfect acoustics. One of the most moving events of my life. I ran through the covered arch where Julie Andrews ran. I played on the stairs at Mirabelle Gardens. It was a wonderful trip! And I'd love to go back again someday!
We
I was in Salzburg with some family last year. My Aunt, Grandmother, my Cousin and I were in Europe for 10 days. When we were in Salzburg, we saw the birthplace of Mozart. It was just fascinating, since I love listening to classical music. Learned so much about this great composer.
You have the best job in the world! Rick Steves Europe
No kidding! He's on permanent vacation as a job, and has made a nice living do it. And has entertained and educated lots of us giving as experiences and knowledge we otherwise would never happened. He's made himself and all of us well off. An inspiration to us all.
jmitterii2 but he needs to update these videos. Some are 10 years old
True
and it would be nice if he was honest about his statements!
Thank you
Mozart was such a genius. Did you all know that he wrote his first piece at the age of five, performed before two imperial courts by six, and then composed his first symphony by eight?Gosh, were did he come from!
Salzburg weren't you paying attention?

Rick Steves is the sweetest thing since cotton candy and must be protected
The hills are alive with the sound of heavy metal music.
I live in Salzburg and it is the most beautiful city I ever seen . Specially the mountain views looking into the city.
Wish I knew someone there. I would have invited myself over.
@@shobhanadhage6600where do you live? You can always stay at my place but first thing first.
Last week I came back from a 2 week euro trip which included Salzbur and Hallstatt. And now I'm tearing up watching all these videos. I want to go back :(
I took a trip around Germany, while in Munich we could take a train to Salzburg. I wanted to go, but nobody else wanted to go, and I didn't really want to go by myself... I was only 18 at the time. I wish I would have. :( I can't recall the other option and what the group and I did. I think it was several options. Whatever it was, the only thing I remember is not going to Salzburg. :(
I've been there too in July 2019 too....beautiful. clean n so fressh
jmitterii2 so pity I wasn’t there to go with you
Rafael Resende Goldschmidt Is it your business who I am.I have lived in Europe for years.and I can go there any time.dont be jealous.calm down

Salzburg du Stadt meiner Träume Salzburg du Stadt der Musik Du bist voller Liebe und Schönheit Salzburg du bist all mein Glück....💜
Rick Steve thank you for taking me to Salzburg, it is breath taking. I watched that movie about 6 times THE SOUND OF MUSIC, I was in high school the late sixties. Just A mazing.
A trip of my lifetime. Stunning.
It's one of my favorite cities. Wonderful place.
Türkçede yazarmisiniz bu. Güzel. Yerleri. İzlemek. İnsanı. Dinlendiriyor. Türkçe. Please.
The moment we stepped out from our hotel into the market of the old city, me and my both exclaimed, in unison, wow... . It has history, mystic, old world charm, green meadows, hills, palaces, castles, music and it's legendary composer. What more can you ask for?
I was in Salzburg in 2015 and it is an amazing place. I had so much fun.
l here come visit my facebook Ali albakri
I just found this video even made 7 years ageist very relaxing to watching I'm a certified nature lover I'm so enjoying watching a video like this thank you Mr. Steve🙏
Hallstatt is on my bucket list
That lake down is heavenly. The kind of place I'd love to retire to.
My first time seeing Salzburg was in 1987 as a 18 year old and have enjoyed it several times since. 👍
Salzburg wonderful place !!!! The birthplace of the great Mozart .
I love Salzburg. I was born in Bavaria. And yes I love to perform Mozart on the piano and the Guitar.
Me too🎉. I watch RS as often as I can so that I can feel like I’ve travelled.
He's visiting Salzburg at the wrong time of the year...my wife and I were there in mid December. It was a wonderful and magical time to visit. The Christmas markets were great, the weather cold and snowy...just a beautiful city...
I don't think there's a wrong time to visit that place.
Dont forget the Skis :)
Nice to see this place in both summer and winter......but this video was gorgeous......so not the wrong time for me at all!
Salzburg is beautiful all year around!!! I lived there for 4 years!!! The best city in europe to live!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@islandbee ...Summers can be very hot and many hotels have no or inefficient air conditioning plus the crowds are abundant.
I love Rick Stevens!
Salzburg marvellous trip loved a play ,walking cathedral museums landscapes.Music great concerts.Remember er sound of music and concerts. Castle a great place to view.Loved mŷ time in this part of Austria. 1990s
Hallstatt looks amazing.
The nicest city I've visited with my daughter, twice.
as usual, Steves delivers perceptive narration with beautiful camerawork. A significantly well delivered product.
I wonder how much cellophane they use to keep it clean. This is the official place to make romantic love stories. Mozart had it easy - if I lived in Salz I too would have written a lot of music. Great vid Rick.
I have been to these two cities, still want to go back to see something new. Thanks for the introduction.
Rick is so cool.
I will love to visit Austria.... I love the classical music and Ballet. U do well, Rick. U have an eye of history from every country U visit ... I love history
Did Salzburg in 2005 as a side trip from Innsbruck. I started watching Rick's videos in 2008 and they are always top quality.
Loved Salzburg & visiting Austria when I was 17.
What a beautiful, breath taking country!!! The scenery really made me wooooow....
Do you welcome sister 123 VIVA L'ALGERIE Salem from salzbourg
since 15th Century, the Christmas Market in the city of Salzburg was amazing.
I went to school in Salzburg. One of the best places I ever lived at.
We here at KBBL East Seattle just love your work! Luv, @undwallace xxxooo 😁👑🌏🌎🌍♥️
मन खुश हो गया। ऐसी खूबसूरत धरती भी है? स्वर्ग
It would’ve been extremely disappointing if the Eine Klein Nachtmusik wasn’t in this video and then guess what , we get a live performance of the same! ❤️
So clean & tidy The locals seem to be proper AND fun-loving👍🏾 The slides in the mines terrified me!
I have been there over 7 times as a tourist, ... such a beauty!
Thank you for all the incredible inspiring videos! 🖤
Beautyful Salzburg. My husband and I spend a year in Salzburg, such easy living. What a way to live a life in freedom.
The Salzkammergut Lake District is heaven on earth! I visited Austria on 2018, meanwhile I was backpacking across Europe. It was my favorite destination overall. The hills are truly alive, the colors of the grass and lakes are so vivid, the nature is so beautiful and the air is so fresh. Only Bayern's or Switzerland's nature can compete against such beauty. Es ist wirklich das Paradies!
I am from Salzburg and i would greatly recommend to go to the Fuschlsee instead of Hallstadt. I find it even more beautiful and there are only half of the Tourists.
@@zehndertobias8 danke für den Tipp :)
More one splendid work, thank you so much! Greetings and friendship.
I want to live in the last little town 💗😍
You can if you have enough money ;)
sound of music tour is must... ❤️
I feel like travelling with a tour guide beside me. Awesome. Thank you for sharing these in you tube. Salute to you Mr. RICK Steve.
Several tourist attractions in Salzburg have remained beautiful and enchanting; therefore, they are very worthy of seeing.
The music selection and the scenery honestly makes me feel like I'm in a Final Fantasy game. What a wonderful video
TQVM Rick and your team of experts for producing this superb video--very clear pictures, good narratives, and well researched. I am very happy to have viewed many of your videos and they have contributed so much pleasures to my armchair travels.

Salzburg is a wonderful place--I want to go back!
WOW! WOW! WOW!!!
Beautiful Salzbourg amaizing thank you
Gracias por subir el video,..Salzburg es una ciudad hermosa.
I enjoyed watching Rick Steves' travel programs on PBS many years ago.
One of the most beautiful cities in Europe. ve been a short round-trip time from Vienna to Pappeburg with other Studenten friends. This greatly adds to our memories of this beautiful city.
I visited Salzburg and Linz this year and it is really beautiful.
such a RICH culture! loved this! thank you!
Nobody said Salzburg's cheap...
I must say that your portrayals are very nice and informative. Thanks a lot!
There is a different feeling for Rick's video s , the music.. The narration.. It's nice
So good to view and appreciate thank you
Beautiful containt
I've walked all these foot steps and love it there. You thought me a lot of new things. Thanks Rick. Love your singing. Lol
What a beautiful place!!
Salzburg is a dream ❤️
Austria 🇦🇹 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💐 From Greece
I have a classical music background and have traveled to musical cities like this one 15 years ago. Rick Steve's travel guide is the most authentic, cultured and practical ones. He has good taste in music and culture. When I lose inspiration or feel down in life, I always come back to his musical city videos. The Salzburg Cathedral now has a youtube chanel and streams music regularly. Now we can enjoy the pure and elevated music of Mozart in his hometown sitting at home!
