Review:

Located in the foothills of the Bükk Mountains, Eger is home to what are arguably the most beautiful baroque buildings in Hungary. The city is best known for its medieval castle, which helped defend the city against the Turks, but visitors can also climb to the top of an authentic Ottoman minaret, relax in the thermal baths, or visit the wine cellar hidden under the basilica. The area is also a well-known wine region, and visitors shouldn't miss the chance to tour the wine cellars in the Valley of Beautiful Women and sample the Egri Bikavér and other specialty regional wines.
