Slow Travel & Gourmet Tours: Magazine & Experience Guide Worldwide
We're traveling through Eastern Bavaria. Passau is our starting point, but our destination lies a little further west on the Limes Road: the Quintana Museum in Künzing. Anyone interested in history—especially the Roman period and the Danube Limes—will find a place here that not only tells history, but makes it tangible.
Suddenly the beach road is no longer called Shore Road, but Belle Cote Beach Road. I find the Scottish-Acadian street names Chemin Old Grand Etang Road or Chemin McCarry Road in Saint Joseph du Moine even more beautiful. We have arrived in the Acadians region on the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton.
In Ebensee am Traunsee in Upper Austria there is a lot going on on January 5th. People are waiting for an event that takes place every year on the last Raunacht, the night before Heilig-Drei-König in Ebensee: the Glöckler run, the Schön Perchten von Ebensee in Upper Austria.
We are on our way in search of the true story of the Trapp family's escape from the National Socialists, not the Hollywood version of the film "The Sound of Music", which made the family world famous.
Elvis lives! In Sogliano al Rubicone in Emilia Romagna. If you don't believe it, we recommend a visit to the Palazzo della Cultura of this small village that towers in the hills above Cesenatico. Here you not only have great views, but also immerse yourself in music history.
Travel to Usedom - most do this to experience the Baltic Sea. Let the wind blow around your nose. Watch the waves come to rest on the beach. Read a good book in the beach chair. Or admire the bath architecture on the promenade in one of the imperial baths. In autumn, a visit to music is also worthwhile.
During a stroll through Salzburg and a tour through the Salzburger Land, it quickly becomes clear what an important role music and world-famous musicians play in the Austrian city. Again and again you come across names like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Schubert or Johann Michael Haydn.
The monastery museum Stein am Rhein is worth a visit. The Benedictine Abbey of St. Georgen is considered to be one of the best-preserved monastery complexes in Switzerland. The construction phases between the 12th and 16th centuries can still be clearly seen today.
A world of fantasy, crystals, glitter, art and kitsch created by André Heller and other artists awaits you in the Swarovski Crystal Worlds in Wattens in Tyrol. They take us into a magical world.
The Walser Culture Guide lists a number of places that bring us closer to Walser culture. We start our tour at the parish church of St. Jodok in the middle of the center of Mittelberg.
