SALZBURG: To be in the right place is always a good feeling, so head towards Salzburg on the last Advent weekend before Christmas and enjoy everything you ever imagined about Christmas in one tiny little town in Austria. The castles, the small streets (Gassen) with authentic shops, the Austrian pastry (Cafe Tomaselli) and Tafelspitz (best at Schloss Aigen), the costumes by the traditional manufacture Jahn Markl and of course the beautiful city gardens and parks such as the Mirabell Garten.
If you cannot make it to Salzburg, be a copycat and make a feast at your place wherever you are. All you need is an Austrian cooking and pastry book, a sense of “Schlossdesign” when it comes to your interior and a look at the last Chanel Metiers d’Art Show where Karl Lagerfeld set a perfect stage with Schloss Leopoldskron for Chanel’s Tyrolian-inspired collection.
So get your decorated cookies on the table and celebrate a cosy Sunday in a Tyrolian way.
