    Suggestions for a “LFP” trip in Prague-Linz-Salzburg- Vienna

    I plan to go to Prague, Linz (Austria), Salzburg and Vienna this summer. I am interested in exploring museums, LFP activities and landscapes/cityscapes, old camera stores. I have some free time in Linz. Is there a LFP member in Linz? Thanks! David

    Go to Havanskis Pavillion restaurant for dinner, it is high on the bluff overlooking prague’s old town, great view at dusk of the town and the Charles bridge! Good food also!

    If you are going to Salzburg the countryside where The Sound Of Music was filmed is gorgeous!

    In Prague, Josef Sudek's studio and the gallery devoted to his work should be a mandatory pilgrimage for any LF photographer...

    There are also nice city views coming down from the church and palace towards the bottom of the hill. You also get interesting views of some older houses of different colors along the cobblestone street. Especially interesting is the blue painted house which was Kafka’s.

    Also interesting shots at the square with the astronomical clock and around the new old cemetery at the new old synagogue. If you ever read The Golem of Prague or saw the old movie, The Golem, this is where the story took place.

    Don’t know if tripods and lf are allowed there though.

    If you rent a car, go to Hallstadt, about an hour's drive from Salzburg. You are in serious trouble if you can't find a photograph there.

    Don’t plan to rent a car. Is it possible to go there by train? Thanks!

    I've only done Hallstatt by car. There is a way to do it by train, the link for how-to info is below:
