Well-tended gardens of Gyor
by yooperprof
A good way to measure a city's self-esteem is to look at its flower beds. Gyor's public spaces had plentiful flowers, carefully selected, weeded, and watered. This flower garden was on the small island in the middle of one of Gyor's rivers.
The Carmelitan church-inside
by 1courage
I just love the internal of this church. After the complete renovation I think that a not really big church couldn`t even look better. The internal was designed by the same Márton Witwer while the paintings were created by the italian Martin Altamonte between 1721 and 1725.
The most impressive parts of the church are the majestic main altar, representing Holy Stephen and his son Holy Imre and the ceiling (see next tip).
Also to be noticed the drammatic side altars, the nice pulpit, created by Ferenc Richter, the two vestries (wich I couldn`t visit this time) and the black Mary statue.

"City Hall"
One of the most impressive sights in Gyõr is the Italian designed City Hall, which has been in permanent use since the sixteenth century. Famed for its palatial appearance, stone columns, arched windows and highly detailed stonework, the building contains over 200 rooms and is used by the council or sometimes for concerts.
