This is a place we'd never heard of before stumbling upon it, and were glad we did. It's a town with a long history, with a historic centre being testament to that. It's a lovely area to wander around and soak up history, at the confluence of 2 small rivers, offshoots of the Danube. Tourists seem to be starting to trickle in but it feels far less commercial than some other towns in the region. We visited in the summer when it was nice to also sit out and eat or have a coffee. We're also just been this month before Christmas and enjoyed the Christmas markets around the town, including the open air ice rink by the river. There were a number of nice touches, such as faux reindeer and Santa's sleigh for the kids to sit on, and free games for the kids to play in the main square. There's a big ferris wheel by the river too though it was slightly pricey for the whole family so we enjoyed it from the bottom.

I visited the Gyor Zoo with my family. We have not been there for around 7-8 years, so the change was amazing for us, as I (unfortunately) have not heard about the reconstruction/renovation in the zoo. We were delighted by the cleanliness, the easy access to animals, the animal show and petting (owl, pigs, llama). THere is contruction ongoing but for us this was not annoying. We especially adored the open wood at the original area of the Vadaspark (Wild Park) where we could feed the animals who were curious enough to come to us and liked our petting as well. However, I was surprised to see the condition of the only horse we saw, at the back of the zoo. It was very sad, very thin - I hope it is only a temporary illness!
