A unique atmosphere and a great choice of goods: that's Austria's most attractive shopping centre. Where else can you find such a selection of shops in such a small area? Where else can you shop and at the same time enjoy the company of centuries-old buildings and savor the historic atmosphere between the Cathedral and the horse-pond.

Whether you are looking for traditional national costume, which enjoys a unique reputation throughout Europe, or designer fashion in one of the numerous boutiques, you're sure to find something to suit your personal taste and your pocket. Lovers of fine jewelry and quality antiques will be delighted by the many exquisite shops in the winding lanes of the old city. And the selection of books and recorded music exceeds by far anything else available in the whole province of Salzburg.

Browsing the shops of a city for something special is one thing. Browsing the shops of Salzburg for something special is quite another. Here, the search turns up unexpected treasures. All the while you're looking for a nice souvenir or an exclusive gift and, becoming hungry and unable to decide between a hot dog stand or a gourmet restaurant, the flair of this charming city will surround you.

Romantic narrow lanes curve around magnificent sacred buildings, flow into spacious squares only to squeeze again between proud, century-old burgher mansions. Crooked paths lead up to the Fortress, past venerable monasteries and take you back down to the bustling city live. In such a picturesque setting, shopping becomes a special experience. There is so much to discover: traditional Salzburg costumes compete with eccentric creations from Europe's fashion capitals; here you're drawn to the glittering jeweler's shops, there to the simple nosegays with their beguiling scent.

Strolling through Getreidegasse is a must. Exploring the hectic bustle of the farmer's market in front of Andrä Church has its own charm. Each Thursday, vendors and farmers from all over the province display their wares, in most cases home-produced. In Salzburg, the traditional exists side by side with the modern, the expensive with the simple. Everything has its place here.

Those looking for some traditional cooking will be able to find it in some of the city's picturesque beer gardens. Places such as the Augustiner Bräu on Augustinergasse and the Stieglkeller on Festungsgasse will not only serve fantastic beer but will also do a number of hearty local dishes.
