Austria Travel Information: New Map Online

Whilst the credit crunch is eating the frist hotels in Austria and much of the tourism industry especially in Vienna and Salzburg are facing severe losses, there are also positive things to report: Note for example the fancy new Austria map with interactive features that the Official Austrian travel board has launched. A useful tool, especially as long as the map of TourMyCountry.com is offline (I am working on it, though).

Note also that the Haydnjahr is supposed to bring fans of the Viennese Classic to Austria, thanks to the 220th anniversary of the death of Joseph Haydn; in my beloved hometown, the less beloved Salzburg Festival has started in the meantime. I am also preparing a new focus on Austria's musical hertiage - to be launched soon.
