Visit Innsbruck
Innsbruck is a beautiful city in Austria, with plenty of sites to
see and is very close to both the Italian and the city of Munich in
Germany. The cheap hotels here appeal to many people because it is near
to all these different cities in different countries and is also close
to some really beautiful landscapes, such as Brenner Pass. This is a
valley that travels through the Alps and is truly lovely to look at and
very picturesque.
The city of Innsbruck is best known for hosting the winter olympics in
1964 and 1976. The city is truly regarded as a centre for winter sports,
it has also hosted two paralympic winter games, in 1984 and 1988 and in
addition to this, has hosted the first ever Youth Winter Olympics most
recently in 2012.
Accessibilty
The centre of Innsbruck is just 2.5 miles from the Innsbruck airport,
which is also known as Kranebitten Airport. This makes it easily
accessible for tourists but you will most likely need a rental car when
you get there. This is because many of the attractions and activities
lie outside the city centre.
Activities
Innsbruck is regarded as one of Europes most tranquill and quaint cities
and it truly does have a lot of things you can do. The Tyrolean folk
art museum is definitely worth a visit. This museum plays hosts to many
pieces of famous folk art and shows you the history and progression of
folk art.
The 15th century Imperial palace is truly unforgettable. The famous
golden roof of Maximilliam I is really impressive and you will find
yourself mesemerised with the building in absolutely no time.
Surroundings
The business of the city is not all you will have come here for. The
wonderful countryside that surrounds Innsbruck is well worth a visit,
but you will need a car. Renting a car has never been easier, with
companies like Rent.it, their service takes the pressure off you having
to find the best deal and they do it all for you.
