#Overseas Travel Eger, Hungary is rich in wine. One of the red wines, called Bull's Blood, is very famous. In the suburbs of Eger, there is a very famous wine region called Szépasszony-völgy. There are many wine cellars here where tourists can visit and taste wine, and they can also taste bull's blood. I went into a few wine cellars to taste the wine. One of them felt like walking into a cave, which was great. I also saw some locals preparing a lot of plastic bottles to buy wine. If you like wine, you should definitely come and see it. #HungarianTravel #EuropeTravel #OverseasTravel

In addition to the long history of Eger, another must-see is the wine city. 🍷🍷 This city is very famous for its wine and has received many awards for its wine, maybe more than any other city in Hungary. Wow! For those who love wine, we recommend that you visit this city. You can walk into the wine village and taste the wine. The price is really cheap. 1 glass is about 300 forin, but it depends on the type of wine and the quality of the wine. ‼️Another recommendation: if you go to drink wine, don't forget to order fatty bread to try. Hungarian friends whispered that it is an indispensable food for drinking wine and eating. It also helps with hangovers. 😃😃 #sipwine #winevillage

#Overseas Travel In the Beauty Valley of Eger, I visited this restaurant. The dining atmosphere alone was very attractive! As soon as I walked in, I was fascinated by the flowers and plants all around. The dining area is under the grape vines, which are used to block the sun ~ but also let in a little light, which feels very comfortable. The restaurant is located in a small inn with an idyllic atmosphere and serves traditional Hungarian cuisine. Ordered a roast goose leg and fruit frozen soup ~ the taste was very much to my liking! Especially the sweet and refreshing cold soup, served with sour cream, full of fruity and creamy flavor! 📍 Kulacs Csárda Eger, Szépasszonyvölgy 3768 1. hrsz, 3300 Hungary #HungarianTravel #EuropeTravel #OverseasTravel

There is also a medieval castle and a cathedral in the city. This time I went to the castle in the city center to have a look. Eger Castle was built in the 13th century and was used for defense purposes. Take a walk along the path to the castle, and while feeling the medieval atmosphere, you can also enjoy the panoramic view of the entire town from a high vantage point. #HungarianTravel #EuropeTravel #OverseasTravel

The murals on the interior dome are magnificent and the colors are bright, which is amazing. 📍 Egri Bazilika Eger, Bazilika, Pyrker János ter 1, 3300 Hungary #HungarianTravel #EuropeTravel #OverseasTravel

#myhiddengems Amongst the world's oldest wine regions, the city of Eger is often considered as a the rome of Hungary. I have had 3 occasions where I visited Eger, coupled with different places each time. It continues to be amongst the best of picks in this fascinating country. Blessed with a rich culture and some brilliant cellars. Eger has variety of offerings, all put together compactly. Some of my favourite experiences include the archbishop library which by the ways had a great collection of paintings, sweeping halls display many beautiful ecclesiastical objects such as jewel-encrusted chalices and ceremonial robes, and there are lots of period furniture from the late Baroque and Biedermeier periods. The archbishop's private chapel is also predictably grand. Across the main church, the catholic university building itself offers a specular example of eger's rich architecture. There is an 18th century observatory with an astronomical museum on the upper level. It's a refreshing mix to the sightseeing catalogue. The castle of eger cannot be missed. I followed it up with the cathedral basilica and just when you feel like you've seen enough for the day you may do what I did. Which was to head to czent Andrea winery for one of the many wine tasting sessions offered in this region. #myhiddengems #hungary #100waysoftravel #europe #summergetaway #solotrip #singapore

Eger has a long and ancient history. The Castle of Eger is an old fortress built on a hill to protect against enemies. If you have visited, you will definitely be amazed like us because the city walls are very high and there are many gimmicks that made the Hungarians win the war against the Turkish. The Turkish had about 35,000 soldiers, but the Hungarians had only 2,300. It is very impressive that the Hungarians were able to win the war this time because there were many fewer people. #History #HistoricalTravel

There are many religious sites in the city of Eger, especially the Eger Cathedral, and the 40-meter-high spires that pass through a total of 100 spirals and narrow steps to the top. Around the church is a lively pedestrian street and the only street where you can see some tourists. This is a city worthy of strolling. The city's monuments are second only to Budapest and Sopron, and are known as the Hungarian Art Treasures and Hungary Athens. From the city center to every corner of the city, there are 175 protected buildings and ruins between the two, so there is time, really suitable for slowly strolling slowly to enjoy the slow pace of the city.

I took a train from Budapest for more than two hours to Eger, a small town in northeastern Hungary. If I got up early, there would be no pressure on the day. In Eger, there will be local people looking at you on the way, asking the locals to tell you warmly, to show you. The city is not big, and you can walk around half a day on foot. It takes less than half an hour to walk from the train station to the castle. If you are interested in wine, you can go to the wine cellar in the suburbs. I like this kind of Hungary with almost no tourists.
