Innsbruck

You will run into serious trouble adjusting to normal life back home after a holiday in the capital city of Tyrol. Utterly laidback, it's biggest selling point, the Alps of which the city renders unbridled views, bought us over several times over as we climbed up various spots to get photo-shots, visited all restaurants that promised beautiful panoramas overlooking them, and bought many a postcard and posters (even crystal ware depicting them!) to take back home. But you'll forget Alps soon enough as you enter city life and sit down at a terrace restaurant with your shoulders shrugged up in cold, your wind-cheaters all zipped up and watch the waiter serve you a splendid portion of cake and a delicious cuppa.

Beautiful museums, churches, palaces, and castles - it's easy to get lost discovering the city's heritage. We recommend keeping track of time and also visiting places like the Old Town, Sparkassenplatz, and Maria-Theresien-Strabe for great shopping experiences and local food. And yes, don't let the cold fool you into thinking the sun isn't hard enough. Its strength will become apparent on your face after a day of roaming around Innsbruck without wearing sunblock. So take care and enjoy!

FAST FACTS

What to pack: In winters, temperatures can plummet to as low as -10 C, so carry layers of warm clothing. Temperatures can radically change from day to day so you'll need to adapt well. A sunblock lotion 50+ SPF is a must. It's amazing to see how sunburnt you can get at such low temperatures. You'll walk a lot here so carry a bottle of water to keep you from dehydrating and wear light shoes all the time.

Main Languages: German (Main) | Austro-Bavarian | Turkish (Minority Language) | Serbian (Minority Language)

When to go: Innsbruck is cold. While in summers, only nights are freezing, in winters, temperatures stay frigid throughout the day. But we haven't seen that fact stop anyone, especially skiing enthusiasts, from taking a schuss down its slopes clad in white for some adrenaline-gushing fun. There are more reasons to be here in winters, like Bergsilvester (New Year's Eve) and Christkindlmarkt (Christmas fair), two great ways to catalogue the lifestyles and culture of locals here.

Summer, being temperate, is a little more touristy.

Local transport: The Innsbrucker Verkehrsbetriebe (IVB) provides local transport, which includes trams and buses. The tram ride to Fulpmes is a scenic experience. It's beautiful.

People staying closer to the city centre can reach most attractions on foot or at the most, by a short tram ride.

Currency: Euro | 1 Euro = INR 64 (approx)

Voltage: 230V / 50Hz

Time Zone: GMT + 2:00 Hours | IST + 3:30 Hours

Shopping: The old town, dotted with small souvenir shops, is a great place to buy things for people back home. Austrian crystal ware makes for a great buy. Other than these, there are a many shopping malls selling the usual and the unusual. You can also buy packed food like cheese, salami and lamb meat.

Sightseeing: Buy an Innsbruck-card worth 25 Euros (valid for 1 day), travel all over the city, and visit all attractions, absolutely free of cost. However, daily public transport cards (in case you aren't covering all destinations) are a better bet. They come way cheaper.

Places to visit include churches like the Hofkirche, which houses the tomb monument of King Macmillan I and the majestic St. Jacob's Cathedral. Innsbruck is dotted with palaces, castles, and museums, so prepare an itinerary beforehand to make sure you cover the places you think are worthy of a visit.

Maria-Theresien-Strabe is a beautiful place to take a walk around at and renders amazing views of the Nordkette mountain ranges. Also visit the Sparkassenplatz, a bustling urban centre to mingle with the locals and enjoy dining at a range of cafes and eateries. In summer, you'll see it come alive with open air film screenings and concerts for everyone.

Food: Visit Cafe Im Murm, built inside the ski-jump of Bergisel, for great coffee, delicious cakes and of course, amazing views of the city and its skyline.

Located where the Herzog Friedrichstrasse culminates, the Ottoburg serves delicious food in separate rooms, each designed and furnished to a different theme. The restaurant has specialty chefs, a different one dedicated to different cuisines, deserts, speciality non-vegetarian food etc.

Great food, great bier, and mesmerising city panorama, besides Cafe Im Murm, are also standard with Seegrube-Hafelekar. Stay out in the sun on the terrace and enjoy.

A superb menu of teas, coffee, and pastries and a good laidback atmosphere has made Cafe Central a favourite with many a local and tourists. Try it!
