explanation: Located in north-west of Austria on the Salzach river and near German border, Salzburg is well known for the birth place of Mozart and a summer music festival. After an invasion of Romans in 14 B.C., it had become a prosperous regional trade center. In 699, Bishop Rupert von Worms received Salzburg from the count of Bavaria and established a bishopric in 739. Hohensalzburg castle built in 1077 on a top hill and a new Salzburg cathedral built in 1628 have been enlisted in UNESCO's world heritage since 1996.
