Salzburg 🇦🇹

Salzburg is the fourth-largest city in Austria. The town is on the site of the Roman settlement of Iuvavum.

The story

Today, I left the very nice city of Bratislava, Slovakia, and headed for Salzburg, Austria. I passed through Hungary because, why not? The first part of the day was spent on the highway, and for the last 200 km / 125 miles, I avoided highways to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Alps before entering Salzburg. I ended the day with some night shots of this (also) nice city!

Oh, and I accidentally created a movie poster for The Omen Part 666… Can you guess which one?

Kostnice v Sedlci 🇨🇿

The Sedlec Ossuary is a Roman Catholic chapel, located beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints, part of the former Sedlec Abbey in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic.

The story

A long trip avoiding highways to enjoy as much scenery as possible, from Prague to Bratislava, with a stop at the Sedlec Ossuary. Unfortunately, photography is prohibited, and even with my stealth photography skills, it was impossible to trick the lady watching the security cams. So, just enjoy the scenery outside!

Hrad Houska 🇨🇿

Houska Castle is a Gothic castle in the Czech Republic, built in the 13th century and allegedly covering a gateway to Hell.

The story

Today was a road trip day since my feet still hurt from all the walking in flip-flops on the cobblestones seen everywhere in Prague! So, I made a quick visit to a gate of Hell and “Bratislava”, one of the filming locations of EuroTrip!
