Dancing waters in Széchényi Tér at night |
Description & Facts: August 17, 2010. Széchényi Tér (square), in the heart of the old town in Györ, Hungary, where I set up base for four nights while exploring Janossomorja and surrounding areas of Hungary. A very picturesque old square lined with many old buildings, and featuring a water fountain with dancing waters in the center. Lined with outdoor restaurants. For a more interesting view of Széchényi Tér and old town Györ, check out the music video of Hungarian recording start Fekete Dávid at www.youtube.com If you can overlook the clowns and mimes in the video, it gives a great view of Györ. I had seen this video before my trip, so when I actually got to Györ and saw it for real, it all looked very familiar. David is a native of Györ, and the Györ tourism board latched onto the video as a promotion for the city. David is now one of its favorite sons, and he appears on billboards all over the city.
