central square markplatz

来到这天堂般的小镇，不枉此行，每个街景都让你惊艳一路都有吃有喝有逛，更棒的是这里的自然人文特色每个人一生一定要来过的地方

这个小镇并不大，大约花一小时可以简单逛完，但如果有时间的话我建议可以坐在湖边，喝杯咖啡，欣赏湖边春光，冬天的hallstatt观光客并不多，早起时发现山充满了云缭绕在旁，是个很美的地方，未来会再去！

这次我们选择坐公车从Salzburg到Hallstatt,总共转了三次公车,但是沿路上都是漂亮的风景,所以虽然坐了约两三个小时的车沿路也不觉得累,Hallstatt是一个小镇,从头走到尾大概一两个小时就足够,可是这个精致的小镇有太多小细节值得细细品味了,如果可以住在这里一天享受清晨的晨曦应该很幸福!很羨慕当地的居民有这么棒的居住环境(虽然有点隐世而独立的感觉),看着小镇里的猫悠闲的躺在屋顶上做日光浴不禁都羨慕起牠们了,很值得去走走看看的地方,绝对会被Hallstatt的美深深吸引~~

只看广场本身,也许没什么可看性.但是整个小镇加起来,就非常的可爱讨喜.广场离湖边近,但看不到湖,广场周边房子色彩缤纷,很像童话世界.建议可以去广场上的Gasthof Zauner吃Kaiserscharren,

虽然是广场，但面积很小，哈尔施塔特作为土地小的湖边小镇，广场也在斜坡上。中心有三位一体柱，广场形状大约三角形，湖方向的一边连接新教教堂，在奥地利新教教堂很少见，其他边的房子窗边都摆饰着花，非常和谐，觉得很适合这很可爱广场。

You have to visit this georgeous UNESCO site. It is very impressive although very crowdy except for winter. Enjoy walk in its streets with view of the lake

This beautiful markplatz is delightful. A typical Austrian village seton the lake. Lots of places to eat and set against the alpine background. Beautiful.

As expected, extremely picturesque, even on a drizzly December day. Christmas markets great, lots to sample, no tack. Fantastic gluhwein and knackwurst. Christmas carols by brass quartet completed the atmosphere,

Before strolling through the village we took a boat ride on the lake to view the scene from the water and this was well worth it. Then we walked along the main street, which follows the lakeside, admiring the typical Austrian architecture until we arrived at the Markplatz. By now it was snowing quite heavily so we retraced our steps, stopping to look inside a church, before returning to our starting point in the car park. Maybe we will return to explore a bit more!

The center square is small for European standards, but is very picturesque. You are in the heart of tiny, beautiful Hallstatt (5* for the town). Facing into the Square (back to the Lake), there is a little Café/ restaurant to your immediate right on the corner with a few tables and umbrellas out front (first restaurant on right). Looks great, but DONT eat here! Really, that bad. Frozen pizzas and terrible food at outlandish tourist prices. Try anywhere else, has to be better. But aside from one business gorging unsuspecting tourists, the city and lake are gorgeous. Get pictures with the sun rising or setting against the mountain backdrop. Breath in the fresh mountain air. Rent a little electric boat from the shore (super easy navigation) that slowly trolls the lake and affords wonderful views of the city. Run your hand through the cool crisp mountain water. Make a mental note. Enjoy. You will not be able to enjoy nature and scenes like this for long. Only place I actually bought a postcard, because this place is truly postcard worthy.

Typical Austrian chalet architecture with each building enhancing .& complimenting the other. Great for browsing around the lovely shops & sampling the local delicacies in the surrounding cafes.. .

Is a charming road, not so fancy nor nothing in that way, but it is nice in its way. Actually you do not need to spend much time there, just go and see the stores, mostly homemade things and enjoy the ambient.

I first visited this super charming Austrian town on a spring time years ago. My heart fell in love and promised to visit it again someday. The " someday " was 13 days ago on an autumn time. Like the first time, I was blown-away. The country roads leading to Hallstatt were like autumn calendar views. Breathtaking. Any artist hand will be itchy not to hold a canvas to paint this stunning views. Richard Clayderman's " Autumn Leaves " found rhythm in my heart. The crystal-clear lake gloriously sparkling to the great backdrop of the Dachstein mountains with golden leaves as if plastered on its massive rocks. Take your lazy time breathing the place. Many ways to explore the town : water ways , boat tour, skywalk up in the mountain or just a pleasant walk around the area. Feed the swans while promenading.. Austrian antique chalets along the mountain sides specially with summer plants still hanging added specialness. Colorful homes are delightful to see. Shops with Austrian crafts are very interesting. When in Salzburg area, grab your best chance to be in this most charming town of Austria. From there there, take a travel to Dachstein Salburgerland. You will not regret having visited them as I did. Accented with an autumn joy this time !

This small town is situated on Lake "Hallstätter See" & is really beautiful and worth visit. Much can be seen in this town. Only a huge amount of noisy Chinese tourists disturb the peace in such a quiet surranding. (Why do they have to raise their voices?)This small town is on a World Heritage Site. In 2012 a full-scale replica of the entire town was built in China :(

It will not take you long to discover the whole town. It is tiny, but very special. The most fascinating view over the town and the lake is from Dachstein mountains. One of the best viewing platforms I have ever seen.If you chance to be in the area, spend some hours in the town and the rest of the day at Dachstein.
