LOCATION

Located on the banks of the Inn River, Innsbruck lies in a valley in the 
Tirolean Alps.  A medieval gem and Olympic city twice over, Innsbruck 
has managed to retain its historical beauty while establishing itself as 
a dynamic and versatile city center. In recognition of the cultural and 
historical significance of its past, Innsbruck has worked to preserve 
the artistic and historical treasures that continue to define this city. 
  It boasts a number of historical landmarks and artistic treasures, 
among them the "Black Knights", the Court Palace, the Golden Roof, and 
Ambras Castle.

While the history of this city holds great importance, Innsbruck also 
features an abundance of first-class recreational facilities. With the 
Alps at one's feet, there are numerous opportunities for hiking, skiing, 
paragliding, and mountain biking, all amidst breathtaking physical 
landscapes. With its mixture of historical, intellectual, and 
recreational offerings, Innsbruck is a city that holds something for 
everyone. It is a unique travel experience that should not be missed.
