The best photos of Eger aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Lyceum will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Valley of Beautiful Women for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
A baroque northern Hungarian town famous for its castle, thermal baths, and the surrounding Egri Bikaver wine region.

Eger attracts visitors for history and food, and Lyceum and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Valley of Beautiful Women reward those who wander off the main path.
Walk from Dobo Square up to the castle for views, then through the old town past the minaret. The Valley of Beautiful Women is a short taxi ride.
April through October. Grape harvest festivals take place in September. Spring and autumn are ideal for walking.
