WINTER CITY
Even in the depths of winter, Salzburg can feel like a breath of spring; its airy, playful baroque architecture, graceful squares, statues, fountains, gardens, and weathered-green copper domes are able to lift the spirits even when blanketed in snow. Much of what you see today is the Salzburg of Mozart – his birthplace tops the sightseeing menu and his music is usually being performed somewhere in town. From this winter, you’ll be able to fly to Salzburg from Manchester as well as London Heathrow and Gatwick. Details: ba.com.
