This is the "heart of the bull"

in #travel8 years ago (edited)

The world's #1 energy drink Red Bull is known by nearly every person on this planet, I think...

Not so many of us know that it's an Austrian brand, with the company's headquater loacted in Salzburg / Austria. Well, I'm from Vienna and that means, it's only 300 kilometers for me to drive for visiting the heart of the bull.

A few weeks ago in mid summer, I was there!

Can you guess what I mean by the heart of the bull? I mean a place called Hangar-7, a collection / museum of historical airplanes and helicopters as well as Formula One racing cars and racing motorbikes.

This is the look of the glass, steel building:

In the ceiling of the construction there is the "360 Bar" located, a lounge totaly transparent in all directions, including the floor.
The staff and the guests enter the high cocktail bar through a bended skywalk, high above the exhibition.

My favorite is the silver one

All the shown objects are ready for operation and they are used some times for shows or demonstrations. The hangar 7 is a real hangar located at the public Salzburg airport.

The hangar 7 is the heart of this fascinating company owned by Dieter Mateschitz. All the spirit of this brand comes out of his dreams, I'm sure.
