Sopron is a charming city located in western Hungary near the Austrian border. It is known for its rich history, beautiful architecture, and vibrant cultural scene. The city has a unique blend of Hungarian and Austrian influences due to its proximity to the border.
One of the most notable features of Sopron is its well-preserved medieval old town, which boasts numerous historical buildings and landmarks, including the Firewatch Tower and St. Michael's Church. The town is also famous for its wine production, particularly the red wines of the Sopron wine region, which are highly regarded both locally and internationally.
Sopron is often referred to as the 'most loyal city' because it chose to remain part of Hungary after World War I despite the Treaty of Trianon, which altered national borders. Today, it attracts visitors for its natural beauty, local festivals, and nearby hiking opportunities in the surrounding hills.
