The amusement park takes you back into a fairy tale world of dwarfs and gnomes. The highlight of the attraction is a small train with a dragon-head at the engine. The train takes you through a rather dark tunnel along which are scenes from various fairytales and mood lighting at some places. Outside, you have a replica old-town market. The spokes radiating from the central market house scenes from popular fairy tales like the red riding hood, Rapunzel, snow-white, sleeping beauty and the likes. Kids will absolutely love this attraction and the grown ups will enjoy it as well.

An unplanned change in carreer led me into tourism. Meeting Holocaust survivors and their family members on the topic of memorial sites in and near Austria.

Like the tour on the history of "The Sound of Music", sites related to composer and musicians
