At the end of this mineral journey, you can enjoy your meal against the extraordinary view of the Alpine Mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skywalk<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The most touristic place in the town, the Skywalk, is located near the salt mine. The Skywalk, which is located about 360 meters above the lake, has been registered as a World Heritage Viewpoint, with the panoramic view it offers. Visitors are greeted by an endless view on a triangle shaped terrace. There is also a cafe in order to relax in this natural wonder, which is also frequented by photography lovers. During your visit, you will realize that peace jars into your bones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BeInhaus<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In addition to its amazing beauty, Hallstatt is also known for the Beinhaus, an enigmatic building. Beinhaus, which means \u201cHouse of Bones\u201d, is located just next to the Michael Chapel and within the Hallstatt Cemetery. The structure makes you feel like you’re in a horror movie for a moment. Previously, due to the limited burial space, the deceased were buried temporarily, and after 10-15 years, their bones were collected and left to get whitened under the sun. This has become a tradition since the 1700s, and over time they have started to draw various motifs, along with names, on the skulls. Later, after the Catholic church approved the cremation of the dead, this practice was stopped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
