The golden roof of Innsbruck is an iconic building in Innsbruck, Austria, originally built by Frederick IV, Duke of Tyrol in 1420 as the Duke's mansion. Between 1494 and 1496, the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I, celebrating his wedding to Mary Burgundy, ordered the addition of a Gothic-style viewing balcony, now the golden roof, on the south facade of the building.
The Golden Roof was built in 1500 in the late Gothic style to commemorate the engagement of Maximilian I. Maximilian I commissioned Niklas to transform the former dilapidated cantilevered building into a palace box with a Gothic dome between 1494 and 1496, so that he could watch the games and drama performances on the square from here.

A county in the Austrian state of Tyrol, located in the central part of Tyrol, bordering the German state of Bavaria to the north and the Italian autonomous province of Bolzano to the south. It borders the counties of Imst and Schwarz in Austria. It has an area of 1,990.1 square kilometers and a population of 154,940 (2001). The county seat, Innsbruck, is an independent city surrounded by the county. It is divided into 65 townships.
Actually, it was a bit of a surprise to go to Innsbruck. I had wanted to go to Interlaken before. I didn't know much about it in advance. After I got there, I visited the Golden Roof, Swarovski, and the old town market. There weren't too many people. The streets were very old-fashioned but clean, tidy, fresh and natural. The leisurely and comfortable feeling was so attractive. It was indeed an unexpected gain.

Swarovski is always on my gift list every year. From watches to necklaces, bracelets to earrings, I seem to have bought them all. I like the way it shines and makes me shine.
The Christmas crystal tree built in the outdoor square of Taikoo Hui a few days ago also sparkles the eyes of passers-by. There is also a lighting ceremony every night, which is beautiful and fun.

How can you miss Swarovski when you go to Austria? There are more varieties and better prices than in China. It is most appropriate to prepare some as souvenirs.

The most prosperous commercial street in Austria is also a very famous place in Europe. Many world-famous brands have flagship stores here, which is a very luxurious shopping experience. There are many shops here and a wide variety of goods to choose from.
This street is a very important street. The whole scenery is very rich. You can also see an Austrian Arc de Triomphe. There are many shops on the street here. It is also an important station before climbing the mountain.
[Scenery] The natural scenery is still very beautiful

I finished skiing, it was so beautiful. .
In order not to fall down the mountain,
I, with my low level, fell into the half-meter thick snow while skiing
There was ice under the snow, the ice was blue, it was so beautiful
Merry Christmas! The brave ones are already going crazy on the top of the mountain, while the others are waiting for the snow, hahahaha

The palace castle is also a very good place to visit. The huge castle is a very historical building and also represents the glorious history of the Austrian royal family. The entire castle is built in a very safe area and has very thick walls for defense purposes.
It takes a day to visit the royal buildings and palace series, including the palace, museum and church. They are all well preserved. The castle here is very uniquely designed and has a strong historical heritage. You can also see a lot of artworks here.
[Scenery] The scenery here is very beautiful
