Here is the long-awaited trip to Salzburg, but at its own expense. The bus smoothly wagged its tail and headed back to Vienna. We sat on the train and drove into the city of mountains and lakes. The city is located 300 km from the capital of Austria, Vienna. The first settlement was built already in the 1st century BC.There is an old city and a new one.
There are many attractions in this city, but the most important are Benedictine Abbey of St. Peter, wherein the summer the monks sell their monastery wine.
Hohensalzbourg Fortress - located on Mount Festung, a historical monument of the Middle Ages, preserved to this day, a funicular operates, but walking is more interesting. The castle was built at the end of the 11th century -
Archbishop of Salzburg Gebhard I. But only the foundation remained from it, the building, as usual, was reconstructed for centuries until the 16th century. I especially liked the collection of weapons. A ticket costs about 10 euros, but you must first find out the opening hours. This information can be obtained at the central station in the city information desk, they also issue free city maps.
Residenzbrunnen fountain built in the late 17th century. Tourists love to gather there, a selfie place.
Catacombs on Mount Monchsberg.
There are some tourist routes in the wake of the secrets of the Wehrmacht, somewhere in the mountains of Salzburg, the n.a.z.is hid their jets. But somehow it was not very interesting.

There are Turkish eateries with shish-kabab in the city. We walked through the confectionery of Salburg, in particular, "Furst" a unique cafe founded in the late 19th century. Every tourist is simply obliged to go there, a cafe-confectionery is located on Broadcast 13.
There, special Mozartkugel sweets are sold, marzipan pistachio base, dark chocolate, in variations. They differ from ordinary Austrian Mozart towers at 1 euro per piece, not with gold foil with a red frock coat of the composer, but with silver foil with a blue image of Mozart. A box of 25 candies costs 31 euros. The best gift from Salzburg. But in the summer it"s dumb, while you bring all the chocolate underneath. Therefore, it is easier to buy calendars with watercolor. They cost from 9 to 30 euros. And this watercolor is painted on the Zaltsakh embankment by an old lady pensioner, not bad when working for retirement.
Stayed in a cheap guest house, a day 26 euros. Bed, wardrobe, 1956. On the walls hangs watercolor. The hanger is wooden old. Everything is painted green with brown. Washbasin with hot and cold water. Shower and toilet in the hallway on the floor.
Only breakfast. As usual a buffet, but simpler than in Vienna. Black bread only, two types of cheese, b.u.t.ter, and jam. Black tea, coffee, mineral water, traditional granola, milk, and fruit. Sliced apples and bananas.
Vienna
Morning and now we are already at the terminal metro station, branches of the Yu1 Kaisermulen (?) Line of the Vienna International Center. We leave for the UN-City building, built-in 1979 by the famous architect Johan Staber. This is a huge complex of buildings.
About five thousand people work in it. Moreover, about thirty percent of the rooms are empty. The building has increased security measures, there are video cameras, horseshoes and brave law enforcement officers from all UN countries. In dark blue trousers with a blue stripe and segreen uniform shirts, with caps or turbaned sights. On a leather belt, on a belt of a holster, with weighty contents.
Here"s the main Gate 1, come in, call the office, a sticker with the inscription "guest". Upon exit, the sticker is removed. Previously, the souvenir shop was located in the building, but since 2000 it has been taken outside. At one time, a woman who spoke Russian worked in the shop. There you could buy UN symbols, circles, T-shirts, badges. Those that were simpler cost 10 euros, abruptly 25. For every taste and thickness of the wallet.
In UN City, a wonderful dining room with very affordable prices, they cook deliciously. If you wish, you can not buy juice, but drink water, where it is free.
The rooms are beautiful, all in light brown wood panels. The IAEA and several other well-known UN units are also located there.
It"s easy to get there, a tour is conducted from Monday to Friday from 11 to half-past four, but you need to check on the spot, in the summer there seems to be a change in schedule.
Vienna is the third city with a UN office, the first and second are New York and Geneva.
The ticket price is only 6 euros.
