Description

Most visitors to Salzburg arrive humming 'Do-Re-Mi,' but few leave knowing the real story. Join travel journalist Christine Loomis as she uncovers surprising secrets hiding in plain sight—from the gazebo moved for tourist safety to why Austrian actors needed coaching on their own 'national anthem.' Discover the palace you can only see by booking a stay, the cemetery actually built in Hollywood, and why ordering schnitzel with noodles earns puzzled looks from locals. With Salzburg celebrating the film's 60th anniversary through exclusive tours with Maria's granddaughter, learn why this UNESCO World Heritage city offers the perfect harmony of movie magic and authentic Austrian culture. Read Christine's full article, 'The Hills Are Still Alive: 60 Years of Magic in The Sound of Music's Salzburg,' complete with self-guided tour tips and insider dining recommendations.
