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?

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!
