Pécs

Although, I posted some of these pics to Pécs 2010, but that thread, is more about projects and developments; therefore, I decided to open a Pécs thread in your cities forum, where more photos of the city can be added.



















Medieval city wall runs all the way from the north and west side of the city centre

It's an old tradition.
I guess if you really love somebody you put a lock on it. It shows your trully love or something.

Confirmed, there is one in Székesfehérvár. But it must be much less popular because there are much less locks.
I saw this in Pécs as well, there were some really funny things... There is a small carved plate on most locks with the name of lovers. I saw one saying 'Máté Ernő', another with 'Bibó István Gimnázium Kiskunhalas' and many with just the name of the producing company (one ironically saying BLISS - TOP SECURITY). It was really misunderstable seeing all this among the many locks with just two lovers' names.

Great city! And nice baroque arquitecture.
Moreover I'm so amazed with the contrast of that ancient ottoman mosque with the occidental look of the rest of the city!



Köszönöm szépen!

Hi everybody!

I'm Vladimir and I'm from Croatia. Yesterday I have visited 'Sovsko Jezero' in southern part of Slavonija, where from I could see TV tower in Pécs and some other Hungarian hills, so take a look below.

For your information, here on map you can see where Sovsko Jezero is:


P.S. those numbers on photos mean how distant something is from Sovsko Jezero.

Enjoy!









And this is my town, Dakovo:
