Altstadt von Innsbruck

Reviewed By Pudik - Tel Aviv, Israel

Magnificent city in mountain valley, fully remained it medieval atmosphere. Much less tourist than in others advertised places, very friendly, cozy, nice city. The hundred years old buildings, narrow streets and medieval towers on the mountains background - it worth to visit! A lot of museums and palaces available - or simply walk through pedestrian zone.

It was amazing to be here and feel this relaxed atmosphere. People were playing chess, lazying around, having a picknick. And the garden is great, tidy and clean. Very good place to rest.

Basilica Wilten

Reviewed By eelSeattle - Seattle, United States

Wilten Basilica was a stunning Rococo church which displays "Our Lady under the Four Columns" on its main altar. Beneath a marble canopy and large golden crown was the Gothic sandstone sculpture of the Madonna - the focus of religious pilgrimages. With its incredible acoustics, the basilica is home to the famous Wilten Boys' Choir. The artwork and ceiling paintings which detail the life of the Virgin Mary were breathtaking. A stroll through the large cemetery adjacent to Wilten Basilica was also interesting.

A very different, but very good companion to its wonderful sister Basilica. We were very fortunate to go in when someone was having an organ lesson - Mendelssohn I think.. Try both churches to compare ??
