Explore the medieval fairytale town of Kufstein in Austria

Kufstein, a fairytale town that has been on my travel list for a long time, finally gave me the chance to check it out on my last day in Austria. I took a Buddhist approach to this small town known as the "Pearl of Tyrol" and did not make any travel plans. I just wandered around aimlessly, but I found that this kind of trip made me happier and every moment seemed like eternity. Transportation Guide: Just type "Kufstein" into Google Navigation and follow the instructions to take the train. No need to book tickets in advance, you need to buy them on OBB when you depart, the round-trip ticket price is 33.6€. It takes about 30-40 minutes from Innsbruck. There are two main check-in points in Kufstein: 1. Römerhofgasse: I would call it the most beautiful street in the world without exaggeration. I was attracted here by the beautiful graffiti on this street. The graffiti on the street walls is so beautiful, like a scene from a fairy tale book. Especially when the blues lights are on, it is so beautiful. 2. Kufstein Fortress: Take the transparent inclined elevator to the fortress. The "Hero Organ" in the fortress has 4,307 pipes and 46 ranges. It is the largest field organ in the world. At 12 noon every day, music is played here, and the sound echoes throughout the town. This is also a good place to overlook the town. This small town is basically a place where local retired grandpa and grandma come to relax. There are not many shares about it on the entire Internet. It can be said to be a niche travel destination. The town is small, has few people and a relaxed atmosphere, making it very suitable for a City Walk. It is enough to sleep until you wake up naturally and set aside half a day to come here. Tips: Don’t evade the ticket! Although there is no ticket check when entering the station, there will be conductors on the train to check tickets.
