No.247-Nov 18, 2015

 At 7:00 a.m., we got up.
When I was watching on the CNN 's TV news program in the morning, I heard
current news topics about Japan.
I watched the news from CNN.com with closed captions like this.
Japan rethinks Pacifism Clause of Constitution.

 In other words, the past cabinets have made constitutional interpretations that
the use of the right to collective self-defense shouldn't be approved.
However, the present cabinet of the same party approved and thus enacted the
security-related laws in the Upper House plenary session by changing the
interpretatons.

 We took about an hour breakfast slowly from 7:40 a.m.

 Today, we are going to stroll around the area on the left bank of the Salzach out
of
“Historic Center of the City of Salzburg” that has been designated a World
Herritage.

 The actual walking route is as follows.

Our actual walking route within the Old Town of Salzburg (2015.09.19)

 
We are scheduled to visit my daughter's friend before strolling around the town.
Her friend is a German named Collina who is raising a 2-year-old boy and a
2-month-old baby girl.
Since she has visited my house in Yokohama, I remember her well.
She is a university professor, but is on maternity leave right now.

 She just happened to live near the hotel and so came to pick us up at the hotel.
There was her appartment about 5 minutes walk from the hotel.

 We went inside her appartment.
Her husband is also a professor at German university.
Though today is Saturday, he was absent from home for a conference in Madrid,
Spain.

 As was expected, there were a lot of infant toys in the room.
Hannah-chan looks very delighted to be friends beside her.

 Collina served hot coffee to us.
She also cooked a large cheese cake for us last night.
My daughter had a long talk with her for about an hour for the first time in
years.
Child-raising looked like the main topic of their conversation.

A commemorative photograph with everyone (2015.09.19_10:50)

 At 10:55 a.m., we go out to stroll around the town.
She took us to the entrance to the Old Town while walking along Salzach with
Hannah-chan on the baby buggy.

Walk along salzach (2015.09.19_11:33)

 Salzach flows from Austrian Alps near the Italian border and then join the
Donube after flowing through Salzburg.
It is flowing between the old and new town in Salzburg.
We can have the fantastic view of Festung Hohensalzburg from a bridge over
the river.
Until about 19th century, it had been used to ship the rock salt which was an
indigenous product of Salzburg, I heard.

 Let me introduce several of beautiful views to you.

The view of Festung Hohensalzburg from the river bank of Salzach (2015.09.19_11:51~11:53)

 We said good-bye to Collina near the entrance to the Old Town at the foot of the
Staatsbrucke.
We take a stroll down the path.
Our walking pace is slow because we are strolling around the town with
Hannah-chan on the baby buggy.

On the way, we stopped at a Sushi Bar at Alter Markt to buy hand-rolled sushis
for her lunch.

The view of Alter Markt (2015.09.19_12:15)

 We got to Residenzplatz.
It's located in the center of the Old Town called “Zentrum” and has Atlas
Fountain in the center of the plaza.

It's surrounded by Salzburg Cathedral in thesouth, Salzburg Residenz in the
west and Glockenspiel in the east.

 Here is the Glockenspiel.
It's a keyboard-type percussion instument having metallic sounding plates, which
is a kind of metallophone.
There is a carillon called a “Glockenspiel” at the bell tower of the new palace
(now, the state government office) which has 35 bells.
I heard it plays Mozart's music three times a day (At 7,11 and 18 o'clock).

The front of Salzburg Cathedral (Saltzburger Dom) (2015.09.19_12:44)

 We decided to tour Festung Hohensalzburg first and then visit the cathedral
afterward.

We walk up a stone-paved slope to go to FestungBahn boarding point.
The following is a view of the Festung Hohensalzburg from the slope.

(2015.09.19_12:46)

 The admission fee to the Festung Hohensalzburg is €11.3 including a round-trip
fare for the FestungBahn.

Festung means “fortress” or “redoubt” in German.

 Construction of Festung Hohensalzburg began in 1077 under Archbishop Gebhard von Helfenstein.
Since then, it had been used as a fortress, a residence castle, a prison and
military barracks.
It's one of the largest medieval castles in Europe that stands at the west end of
Monchsberg.

 We get off the cable cars and enter the castle.
The castle comand a glorious view of the streetscape of Salzburg.
We can see the new town across the river.

Stroll along the path in the yard inside the fortress (2015.09.19_13:25~14:15)

 The following are the views from the inside and of the fortress.
There is an underground water strage tank (center in the below photos) called “lange cisterne” in the center of the courtyard.
There is a warehouse across the tank.
There is also the latter Gothic St. Georgs Kirche constructed in 1500 by
Archbishop Leonhard von Keutschach in this courtyard.
There is a relief image of Keutschach (right side in the below photos) on the
external wall.

 We participate in a observation tour of the fortress.
It is very convenient because we can tour while listening to the audio guidance in
Japanese.
We can see exhibition panels explaining the histrical process in which the
fortress had been constructed and such exhibits as archbishop's living room, a
great hall for festivity, a torture chamber and weapons,etc.

 There is the “Golden Chamber” built as Archbishop Keutschachthe's living
room when he extended the fortress.
There is a Gothic tiled (majolica) fireplace in the corner of the room with a
ceiling, walls and doors which used to be covered in goal-embossed leather.
They clearly showed me that archbishop of Salzburg was not only Catholic prelate but also had absolute power.

 After touring the fortress, we go down to the Old Town by funicular.
As we got hungry, we strolled around the town while looking for a suitable
restaurant.
Various shapes of decorative signboards crafted with iron hang from the outer
wall of the stores in the shopping district.
The old streetscape and these signboards have an atmosphere vaguely harmonized with each other.
I have fun with just looking around them.
It's said the signboards were supposed to be represented by illustration because
many people still couldn't read and write in the Middle Ages.
When we were strolling the path called “Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse ”, we found
a strange signboard.

There are the alphabets of “Restaurant” and “Hotel”under the elefant.
The first floor of the Hotel Elefant is the Restaurant Elefant.
Since there were available seats, we had a late lunch there.

Late lunch at the dinner bar Elefant (2015.09.19_15:37) 

 After we got full, we began to stroll around Historic Center of the City of
Salzburg again.
First, we visited Salzburg Residenz where is located at the west side of
Residenzplatz.
The existing residentz was complated in 1619
It is the place where the successive archbishop lived to conduct the affairs of
state.


Salzburg Residentz (2015.09.19_16:27)

 There is a courtyard within the residenz and the Heraculean Fountain within the front arcade.
The statue of Heracles wiping out a dragon is installed there.
We looked around the residentz from the outside without entering it.

It's said the organ consists of 6000 pipes.

 Well, we really get tired from walking!
Today we will finish strolling around the Old Town of Salzburg with this.

 It started drizzling.
We took a bus from Rathous bus stop in front of the entrance to the Old Town to
Salzburg Hbf to go back to the hotel.

 
I have regrets about being many spots in Salzburg that I still want to visit.
Salzburg that has its own history and a deep taste was a wonderful place.

 We are going to take a trip to Innsbruck tomorrow.

 At around 7:00, I got up.
From 7:30 to 9:00, I had breakfast with everyone.

 When I go into the garden, it's cloudy today as you can see.
There are colorful flowers blooming there.

 When I look carefully, I can find that a fence at the roadway side has a unique
structure.
The fence is steel-framed and small stones having a suitable size is only filled up
in the frame.
It's fancy that rectangular planters with colorful flowers are hanging on the
fence.
I'm sure it was produced by Oma whose hobby is gardening.

Flowers and trees in the garden (2015.09.18_10:35)

 And now, the news about refugees from Syria have been frequently broadcast
on TV since we visited Austria.
According to yesterday's information from Austrian Federal Railways (BBÖ),
they intend to suspend train services to Munich in Germany all day long.

It's said that about twenty thousand refugees a day flow into Austria, of which
tweleve thousand go to Germany and eight thousand are protected by the
Austrian Federal Government.
Gerry said 50 refugees out of them were also sent here to the small town of
Utzenaich and were protected inside an old castle.
It's because it's now impossible for only Germany to take in many more refugees
than expected.
It's said Austria and Hungary started building a fence partly along the border.

 So we are forced to give up our trip to Munich.
In addition, we have to give up the refund of the hotel charge which has already
paid when we made a hotel reservation.
This is adding insult to injury.

 Today we left Wagner Family's house with Gerry's family to go on a sightseeing
trip to Salzburg in Austria which is a city along the German border, Innsbruck
which is famous for natural landscape in Tirol and Neuschwanstein Castle which
is located at the end of Romantic Road in Germany.

 We decide to travel not by train but by rental car.
We feel sorry to rely on Gerry for driving a car.

 At 11:50, we left Wagner's house.
He said to us that we could get to Salzburg after about an hour and a half.

 Once we parted from Gerry here.
Since it's been a long time since he returned to his country, it looks like he is
busy meeting his friends.

 And now, I'd like to introduce Salzburg to you.



 Salzburg is the city in Austria. The population is about
 150,000.

 Its altitude is 424 m.

 Every year, it has a music festival named after a musical
prodigy Mozart that it produced and so gets a large number of
music fans from all over the world.
It has fantastic streetscapes and its old town lined with baroque buildings is
especially registerd as a World Heritage site.
Its suburbs formed the setting of the musical film “The Sound of Music”.

 Salzburg was a kind of state that archbishop who is a Catholic clergy reigned
as liege lord for about a millennium from the 8th century.
The arcbishop is the tremendous person in autority who rules both religion and
politics and they had built Festung Hoensalzburg and man palaces.

 It was salt that became their wealth and power.
Salzburg is a production area of rock salt having high purity.
The salt was so valuable that it was called as “white gold”.

It is called “Salz”in German.
That's how the name's origine was derived.
(Salzburg means “Castle made from salt”.)

 In the middle of the 18th century, the archbishop of the day, Schrattenbach,
appointed Mozart aged 13 to concertmaster of a court orchestra.
Mozart who was given his place to exhibit his skill created one masterpiece after
another.

 I stroll through the new town after light lunch at the restaurant on the first
floor of the hotel.
Hannah-chan has a nap with her mother in the hotel room.
I went out with my wife.
The actual route is as follows.

Strolling through the new town in Salzburg (2015.09.18)

 Since we ran low on money during our trip, we first stopped by an ATM
in Salzburg Hbf to withdraw cash.
A withdrawal limit at the ATM was €400.
So, we tried to withdraw €800 in twice but could never make a second withdrawal.
We asked a waiting person how to do that.
She taught us that a daily withdrawal limit is €400.
It looks like it has been set much lower in Austria than in Japan.

 Then we got to the tourist information to get a guide map of Salzburg.
When we asked for the Japanese version of it, we were recommended to buy a
Japanese booklet“Salzburg”from the staff.

 Again, I get back to the topics of refugee issue.
Austrian police squad is on guard with a flourish at the station.
The camp from the Austrian Red Cross is set up on the plaza in front of the
station.
The camp is lined with a lot of temporary white beds.
And an intensely green military truck stands by near the station.
Some refugees that flowed in Austria are probably housed here temporarily.
I felt abnormality due to the influx of refugees.

 With the guide map in hand, we walk to Mirabell Palace and Gardens on the
right bank of the Salzach River.

This area is designated a World Heritage Site as one of the “Historic Centre of
the City of Salzburg”.


 There is an all-too-common streetscape in new town.

 There are Mirabell Palace and Gardens across the wide street “Rainer Street”
from the platz.

The flowerbed and fountain in Mirabell Park (2015.09.18_17:00)

 It's the park that is well trimmed like a flower garden.
A lot of red, yellow and purple flowers were in full bloom.
We can see Mirabell Palace at the front.

 The palace was built at the behest of Archbishop of Salzburg“Wolf Dietrich
Raitenau”as a pleasure palace for him and his mistress Salome Alt.
It was rebuilt in a Baroque style from 1721 to 1727.
The hall is now used as the concert hall ant event site.
