Living in a Palace in Salzburg, Austria _ Sound of Music Tour Winter

This is our last day in Vienna and we want you guys to decide what we do. If we came here yesterday, there would literally have been green grass. I think there was a bit of a hike. Your last suggestion was jump on a train and go and visit Salzburg. This is exciting. We're staying a little bit outside of the city because we're seeing a very cool accommodation. Movie fans, you will know how cool this place is. Wow, for a courtyard view, that's actually pretty impressive. Oh, I think one of these are necessary. Reveal the cold. Oh my gosh, it is so snowy. Wow, this place is so beautiful though. This one didn't pop up as cool as the other one. So beautiful. It's like a movie. Well, technically it is a movie. Do you want to tell everyone where we're staying? Okay, so we're staying at the, what's it called again? Schloss Leopoldskron Hotel. Something like that. Put the word up here. And they actually film some of the sound of music here. And it is so beautiful. We're staying, so we're staying in this little pink building here. Yeah. And next door is a palace. And people can stay in the palace as well. You just gotta have a lot of money. Looks like more of like a suite. But look, that's the palace there. And we'll go give you guys a tour. And it overlooks this gigantic lake. But at the moment the lake is frozen. It's so funny because everyone who would watch the sound of music would be interested in like coming here for the sound of music. This is not why you come to Austria. You're coming for the green pastures. Instead everything's like covered in snow. But this is so beautiful though. Oh yeah, this is the palace. We'll give you guys a better view of it. Oh my gosh, how much do you want to stay to suite? I know, it looks amazing. Like this looks like a Disney palace, like Cinderella. It's actually beautiful in the winter. Yeah. Like this morning we were a little tiny bit sad because we were like, oh, it's not going to look like sound of music. But then when we woke up in the morning, I was like, well, this is so beautiful. Okay, you guys know how big movie buff fans we are. So being here is really cool because it's quite an iconic spot. Show on the grumpy face. You're the queen from Princess Diaries, I think it is. Is this just the perfect swing? I've never swung in the snow before. I love how the sign is saying, swinging may cause happiness. Use at own risk. I couldn't agree with that more. It was way too much fun. We can say that we're about to go to a palace for breakfast. Oh yeah, that's where breakfast is, isn't it? In the palace. Is this your first time having breakfast in a palace? Yes, yes it is. Oh, it's very fancy. Which way do we go? Oh, that's my favorite word. Wow. Look at this staircase. Oh my goodness. Frohstruck. Wow. We are keen because it doesn't open for five more minutes. Oh my goodness though. What a grand ballroom. This is a buffet fit for kings. I think so. There's so many like Cinderella tables to choose from. I think I want to sit at the window. This place is actually insane. Oh my gosh. I can't get over it. We haven't stayed in a place like this before. This is insanity. Wow. We got a little view outside. The palace exploration continues. We've arrived in the library. Oh my gosh, I'm going to give this a scarlet. In the library. I think it reminds me of Cluedo. Oh yeah, it does. It's so squeaky. I feel like if your bedroom was just here and you tried to sneak up, your parents would not like, they would hear you. Imagine this is just where you chill. Just in this living room right here. Oh, there's some more views of the lake. I think I found a secret passage. Shall we go up? No. Yeah, let's go up. Let's go up. Okay. This is where all the good books are stored. It's the restricting center. Oh, where am I going? Bobby, hello. All the fun books are up here. Hey buddy, what are you doing in the snow? Oh my goodness. Oh, I think you're going to do your business if you're going to dig up some snow. I'll let you be. Alrighty guys, there is only one tour you need to do when you're in Salzburg. And I'm pretty sure we're going to be the only people this side of gray hair on this tour. It's the sound of music tour and look at the bus. Definitely doesn't look touristy at all. But oh, there's a hotel on the bus. Are we going to be stopping at a hotel? Probably. Alrighty, guess where our first stop on the tour is? Our hotel. It actually looks really beautiful from this side of the lake. So we actually found out that the lake here is totally artificial. The person that built this, like as a present for his son, was it? His nephew. His nephew just built him this entire lake. We also found out that this place, it was literally every outside scene in front of the trap house was all filmed here. So the actual house isn't the actual house, but they're out like all the gardens and stuff. All the scenes from the movie because they only got permission to shoot outside. They didn't get permission to shoot inside. So the inside scenes is like different locations around Salzburg. That's cool though. How beautiful is this park out here? It's so nice with a blanket of snow. But we've come to the next stop is the pavilion, which actually fun fact was at our hotel. But then up until 30 years ago, too many people kept jumping into the hotel to get a photo. So they moved. Kind of digging this park because it's got these yellow painted walls and against the snow. It actually looks really beautiful. You can see Lake Fuschel. It's one of 70 different lakes here in this area. We have to come back here in the summer. I know this tour is like inspire me to come back in summer. Just look at this. We're just outside of Salzburg at the moment in the hills and look at this view. This is a town that we're going to go and explore a little bit of. And of course, this is the opening shots of the movie. I just really want to come back here in summer. I'm sure it's going to look incredible because it's a bit foggy, but there are mountains and hills just here. You got this little cute town with a little church there. I already, we have just arrived in Munsee. And this is the church that they get married at at the end of the movie, but they actually never filmed the outside. So it looks really beautiful. Yeah, the church is sound inside. So we're going to go in. It's a really pretty church. This area is so cute. This town, just wait till we show you around. It's like colored buildings. We're already planning our summer Austria road trip. And wow, this church is insane. Seriously, how cute is this street? This is the main street. Your little photo? Yeah, let's go find some apple strudel. We haven't had any. There's like a little bakery over here. Let's go check it out. Oh my gosh. Just look at the town behind behind you. I know it's so cute here. It's super different to Vienna. Hey, yeah, definitely. These are more like cute little Austrian towns. Yeah. Really old ones. I'm guessing. All right. We found the only cafe opening in this little town. It's a Wednesday. I don't know why it's closed. Our first time trying apple strudel. And also we picked up a different one. Toffen strudel or something. It's cheesecake. The funny thing is Jess isn't a huge fan of apple strudel. And I was like, hell yeah, I love this stuff. And then I heard cheesecake and you don't like cheesecake. And I was like, oh yeah, I like this stuff. Perfect dessert. Because I have mine, which you're struggling with. And you have yours. Good? It's really good. Well, try the cheesecake one. Let us know what that's like. Eat, eat. But this might be a newfound thing though. Cheesecake stuffed apple strudel. No? I prefer this one. Oh, easy. Thank you. Goodbye. We've come to the end of the tour. Do you recognize this spot? Do, a, di, di, di, di, di, di, di, di. So at Mirabella Gardens, the Do, Re, Mi scene is filmed here. Of course, this is the end where they're like changing the octaves as they go up. And then there's like the, like they run through and then they run around this and run up here. And um, yeah, it's cool. That's the end of the tour. I hope you guys enjoyed that. That was super fun. It was so good. Like it's even better when you actually, you know, on the tour. So you guys should definitely do it. But we also just found out that this is a birthplace of Mozart. So we're going to go and check that out next. Also. It's so funny. So we're leaving the new part of Salzburg and going to the old part of Salzburg. They call it the new part and it's 400 years old. IE twice the like oldness of Australia. Twice the age of Australia. Twice the oldness. I like that. Yeah. But I really hope you guys enjoyed like going on that little tour with us. Cause we understand a lot of people, you know, kind of watch these vlogs. Cause they can't do these things. So all you leasels out there that can't come on the tours. I hope you enjoyed it. Okay. Harry Potter fans. How much does this, does this look like the Whomping Willows? I don't know if she was inspired, but it does. We're just walking alongside the river and there's like this massive love lock bridge just here. Look at these houses and then you've got the fortress with the castle just there. Like this is just a fairy tale. Seriously. This is one of the most beautiful cities we've ever been to. Even on a terrible day. Like look at that cloud storm just up there. It looks so beautiful, but we seriously need to come back here in the summer. Jess. So Salzburg isn't just known for the sound of music, but something else to do with music. This is pretty much like the birthplace of Mozart. I'm currently walking inside his house where he lived for the first like part of his life. Okay. Thank you. Thank you so much. Alrighty. Our final Austrian thing to try. I'm sure there's a lot more. You'll have to tell us if we return. Had to get a pretzel from this, like, it's called the, what's the market's called? Grand market. And in summer, I think this is a really booming, but this is all we need. This lady's literally selling meats and cheeses and pretzels. And she just, she slices what you want and then you get it. We've got a plain one and a cheese one. Just dig in. That's really fresh. All right. We're back on the train. I hope you guys enjoyed that day trip to Salzburg. We're just heading into Vienna. So we'll see you then. The hills are alive with the sound of music with songs. Alrighty. I hope you guys enjoyed that series here in Austria. If you are new around here, make sure you hit subscribe because we're heading to a brand new country tomorrow. See you guys next time.
