Interested in architecture? The Bergisel Ski Jump, built in 1925, won the Austrian state prize for architecture. Salzburg is home to impressive castles, palaces and state cathedrals. A whole sparkling universe dazzles at Swarovski Crystal Worlds; the visitor shop designed by Terence Conran stocks watches, bags and jewellery. The Silberbergewerk Schwaz (silver mines) were once worked by 10,000 miners and originally made coins and jewellery that contributed to the immense Hapsburg wealth. Music and art lovers will find exhibitions, Mozart recitals, opera performances or other music events attached to Salzburg’s festivals, the city also boasts a new modern art museum. Zell am See has plentiful attractions including a casino as well as fast action ice hockey matches. Exhilarating ski races take place in Kitzbühel. Evenings in Austria are always the time for Schnapps and some thigh-slapping dancing!
