Review:
Located in the Bavarian Alps on the German side of the Austrian border, Berchtesgaden is a rural town with a history dating back 500 years to salt mining in the region.
Strolling through Old Town one can see the Rococo city center, 12th century monastery, royal palace and aristocratic homes. Enjoy local Bavarian music and dance at any of the outdoor cafes. Stroll through the market in the town square, and visit the local salt mines, which began operating in the 16th century.
