End of the World Sign

Nothing special about this location, but if you happen to spend a half day walking around the town, I am sure you will run into this famous sign. Just another signature sign post that everyone takes a photo with in Ushuaia.

Known for Mozart's birthplace and beautiful surroundings, Salzburg is a small town near the boarder of Germany. Located in southeast of Germany, Salzburg actually belongs to Austria. If you are staying in Munich for a few days and have a day to spare, hopping on a train to do a quick round trip to Salzburg would be a great idea. It takes about 2.5 to 3 hours to Salzburg train station from the Munich Central Train Station.
As it's located near the Germany boarder, Salzburg shares a lot of German cultures. When you arrive and look around this small town, you'd notice that a lot of buildings, its atmosphere and the tone seem similar to what you'd see in other small towns in Germany. But you will soon realize this town is beautifully located and very well maintained. The streets are clean, people are nice and the entire town seems to be celebrating the Christmas throughout winter. So this is a must go place if you are in Germany or Austria during the winter time. Also make sure to take an unbrella as it seems like it rains frequently during the winter time.
Places to visit while visiting Salzburg are noted (but not limited to) below:
- Mozart's birthplace
- Walking around the town
- Hohensalzburg Fortress
- Salzburg Cathedral
- Salzburg Christmas Market for winter time (near Salzburg Cathedral)

Christmas markets in Salzburg provide a very warm feeling just like Christmas! As the town itself is pretty small compared to others, you can easily find Christmas markets throughout your walk around the old town. If you feel like Christmas, let's make sure to stop and look around!
Southern Fuegian Railway

A must do! If you don't have time to do anything, consider doing this tour. You will have to purchase the tickets online in advance and will have to spend a good 3 hours as a tour time. If you add the commuting time (it takes about 20-25 mins to uber / taxi to the station from the city center), you will basically need a half day to complete this tour.
You will like the tour experience! This train basically takes you to the part of Tierra Del Fuego National Park and allows you to get off at each location. You get 15 to 30 mins to look around, take a small hike, and take pictures duringt the break time. Then you basically hop back on the train for the next stops. Each stopping point provides an unique view of nature.
Riding this old fashioned train is also a memorable experience. The train looks like an old train that you may have seen in the cartoons or disney movies before (despite what it was used for).
Tip 1: Definitely purchase the train tickets in advance (at a couple of days before or as you plan for your trip to Ushuaia). I visited Ushuaia in the fall (end of March) so I didn't have an issue buying tickets a day before our tour, but I was told the tickets run out fast during summer.
Tip 2: As you get on the train, if you are a photo taker, I would recommend sitting at the far end of the train (if you can), also facing the same direction as the train is headed. This will give you a better view of the train and nature to take photos.
