Innsbruck, Austria, also known as der Hauptstadt der Alpen,
is the main city of the Alps and an amazing place to visit. The city of
Innsbruck is completely surrounded by mountains, which at the moment are covered
in beautiful crisp white snow. Innsbruck is situated in the heart of the North
Tyrolean Alps.
It has many attractions
such as cafes, museums and das Goldenes Dachl, the Golden roof, which was originally
made for Emperor Maxamillian I as a balcony from which he could watch
tournaments in the square below. However, the main attraction in Innsbruck is
the large snowy mountain range. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to
stay in Innsbruck and celebrate New Year’s Eve on top of one of the large snowy
mountains.
I went with my boyfriend Peter and stayed with one of his friends
in Innsbruck. During the day of the 31st we walked around and did
some sightseeing and took pictures of the beautiful landscape. That evening we
went to Cloud 9, which is and Igloo club located on top of Innsbruck’s
Nordkette Mountain. Here is a YouTube link so you can get a glimpse of the
stunning view from Nordkette and the Cloud 9 igloo bar.
It was an amazing night. We danced in the Igloo until
midnight and then went outside to watch all of the fireworks down below in the
city and then we lit off some of our own. It was an amazing experience and I don’t
think I will ever have a better New Year’s Eve celebration.
