Austria - Salzburg was founded in 700 AD on the banks of Salzach river and is the capital of Land Salzburg in Austria. The city got it's name from the business that made the region rich beyond anyone's dreams, salt. Before there were convenient means of transportation, it was a good living for a young man to walk from the four corners of Europe to Salzburg to pick up a few blocks of salt and hike them back to, let's say England, to sell for a handsome profit.

That doesn't stop the locals from marketing that fact to every tourist that comes to Austria. The most beautiful town in Austria - Hallstatt
