Getting around in Salzburg is very simple and safe.  You may choose to take a walk  around the city or hop in its public transportation, which includes trams and buses that will take you around town from Nonntal parking lot to Sigsmundsplatz, the city-center parking lot.  You may use the Salzburg card that is valid for different periods that go from 24 to 72 hours according to the fare. It is also useful for admission to Salzburg's most interesting cultural places. Within those you may visit Mozart's birthplace, the Hohensalzburg fortress, the Residenz gallery, the Baroque Museum in the Mirabell Gardens, and the gala rooms in the Archbishop's Residence. You may use the card to visit outer places of town such as, the Hellbrunn Zoo, the open-air museum in Grossingmain, the salt mines of the Dürrnberg, and the gondola trip at Untersberg. It is very simple to use it and visit all this places since this specially designed and small card also includes a brochure and a map.  It is better to do sightseeing thorugh this way since most of the monumental landmark is designed exclusively for pedestrians and renting a car will not let you enjoy all of Salzburg's beauty.
