While the apartment offers a peaceful escape, Eger’s legendary attractions are wonderfully close. Here are three must-visit sites, all easily accessible:
- Eger Castle: The iconic fortress that defines the city’s skyline and history. From Toszkána Apartman, it’s a pleasant 30-minute walk (about 1.5 miles/2.4 km) through the city’s charming streets. Alternatively, it’s a quick 5-minute drive or a simple bus ride from the nearby city center. Explore its medieval walls, museums, and the famous Dobó István Square for breathtaking views.
- Eger Basilica: As Hungary’s second-largest church, this neoclassical masterpiece is awe-inspiring. It’s located just 1.4 miles from the apartment, making it a straightforward 25-minute walk or a 5-minute drive. Its grandeur and impressive organ are essential to understanding Eger’s cultural and architectural significance.
- Szépasszony Valley (Valley of the Beautiful Woman): No trip to Eger is complete without tasting the famous Bull’s Blood wine. This unique valley, filled with rustic wine cellars, is roughly a 40-minute walk or a 7-minute drive (1.8 miles) from your door. It’s the perfect place for a lively afternoon of wine tasting and local atmosphere.
