Kehl is a town in the southwestern region of Germany, on the banks of the river Rhine. This scenic town is a gateway to the larger city of Strasbourg, France, on the opposite bank of the river. Several bridges connect the two cities, but the Passerelle des Deux Rives is the one to cross if you can.

While the bridge offers nice river views, the Weißtannenturm Kehl is an observation tower that offers panoramic views of the entire town.
Kehl is a small town, but its location near the border between France and Germany means it offers a great mix of traditional German and French cuisine. The most notable eateries in the city are Alte Zunft Kehl and Zur Traube.

Salzburg is located in the north of Austria and might be best known for its stunning landscapes and locations featured in The Sound of Music. Don't worry, there are plenty of organized tours to see the Von Trapps' house, the hills where Maria sings, and more of the film's iconic settings. This cultural and historic city offers many more activities set against the stunning backdrop of churches and castles.
Salzburg Old Town, or Altstadt, is one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites, and it is easy to see why. The beautiful Baroque-style architecture and churches are straight out of a fairytale, while the looming Hohensalzburg Castle and attached museum serve as a reminder of Salzburg's decadent past.
Salzburg was a musically famous city even before The Sound of Music, as it's known for being the birthplace of Mozart. Music lovers can visit his residence and the locations associated with Mozart's life in Salzburg. In winter, be sure to stay for one of Salzburg's famous Christmas markets. The Christkindlmarkt tradition dates back to the 15-century, with hundreds of stalls offering the finest mulled wine, handmade crafts, and delicious Christmas treats.
