Cities
I went to not only Budapest,also Western Hungary.Firstly,I wanted to find and drink nice Hungarian wines,so I was thinking about traveling Eastern Hungary.Becouse I've heard the name of famouse Hungarian wine in Eastern region.
But I was really ineterested in Sopron in Western,at the same time.Sopron is called Middle Old Town,it's beautiful and histrical city.Fortunaterly,I had found nice hotel in the guidebook..After I had decided to go to Sopron,I reserched about Western Hungary.Lucky for me,I could know they have really nice wine yard in Sopron area!!
.I visited Szentendre,Gyor,Pannonhalma,Sopron,Szombathely,Koszeg and small town whish is the owner couple of the private room's hometown.
Language
They say Hungarian is one of the most difficult languages in the world(I think Japanese too).I tried to study some words or phrases before I had left.Buti t was really really difficult!!!not easy to imagine what people said.So I almost spoke English and jesture everywhere :)
Anyway,thank you for reading and seeing this page!Koszonom!
