    While in Austria, it is impossible to bypass the mountain Hohe Tauern (High Tauern), which extends over a distance of more than 100 kilometers.
    First of all, the mountains are interesting because of their natural component - coniferous forests, alpine-like landforms, glaciers and tributaries of the Salzach River.
    The highest mountain in the country, Grosglokkner, which reaches 3,798 meters deserves special attention. It was first conquered by Martin Reicher in 1800. It has two peaks, which are called Grossglockner and Kleinglockner. The mountain is also famous for the largest glacier in Austria - Paszterze.
    Especially for a convenient and quick view of the scenery and panorama of this place, the Großglockner mountain road was created.

    The heart of the Austrian city of Graz can rightly be called the Hauptplatz.
    The square has a triangular shape, which already makes it attractive. On the square there are several beautiful buildings with a rich history. Among them is the town hall, built in the style of classicism at the end of the 19th century, which for a long time remained the center of political life of the city.

    The Lügghaus building and its Renaissance frescoes deserve special attention.
    On the square is the fountain of Archduke John, who contributed greatly to the formation and development of the city, and the four figures of women that adorn the fountain refer us to the main rivers of the region.
