Innsbruck, Austria's gateway to the Alps

#2024TravelReview On the way from Munich to the Dolomites in Italy, we stopped at the beautiful mountain town of #Innsbruck in Austria. Since it is close to the Alps, you can take pictures of the majestic snow-capped mountains behind you from the city streets, so it is also a popular tourist attraction. The city of Innsbruck is not large, but it has a superior geographical location and the Alps as its unique backdrop, so it is quite photogenic. The Goldenes Dachl, the golden roof, and the Stadtturm, the town hall tower, located in the downtown area, are arguably the most famous buildings in Innsbruck. The cathedral and the Hofburg are also not to be missed. The Innsbruck Cathedral, Dom Zu St. Jakob, was originally a typical Gothic building, but it was rebuilt in Baroque style after a fire. The painting "Madonna and Child" on the main altar is very famous. Innsbruck also has a royal palace, but it is not as large. By the way, there are also two attractions outside the tourist service center, namely the Annasäule, which commemorates the eradication of the Black Death, and the Arc de Triomphe, which can be seen in many European cities. #SwissTravel #Alps #Innsbruck
