I have long appreciated the rich and spicy flavour of Hungarian paprika, and on this trip I had the chance to find out all about its production. Just a short walk upstairs from the Pick salami factory we are taken through the laborious process of producing some of the finest paprika in the world.
This museum has been put together with all the care and attention of its downstairs neighbour, and I once more was entranced by the photographs that provided the backbone to the exhibition. Once more the exhibits had been carefully collected and restored to their former glory, and the same life-sized pegdolls used to display authentic costumes and activities.

Memory is unperfect!
I was a young boy and my parents took me to Szeged to by me a good quality acordion (because it was cheeper there).
BTW I had to learn to play it...
But then at the age of 15 I got smatr and bought me a GUITAR and started ROCKING.
So, it's not realy a sad story about Szeged after all.
;o)

River Tisza is one of the most important symbols of Szeged.It originates from Eastern Carpatian mountains where the two branches ( white tisza and black tisza) are united.It gives the city its beauty according to me. You can take a boat tour along the river, or just walk by the shore,watch fishermen , even taste their fish speciality dishes.

At the corner of Tisza Lajos krt.and Kölcsey utca ,stands the Reök Palace.It ' a typical sample of hungarian architecture, which they call ' Hungarian Jugendstill'.In Szeged, the citizens call this building ' The Horse's Rump' cuz it 's behind an equestrian hussar statue,one of the heroes of First World War.

The neo-baroque style City Hall is among the eclectic palaces, Szeceny Square.It's foundation was laid down in late 18. century. The City Hall is connected with the ' Bridge of Sighs' to the neighboring council house, which was constructed for the King's day .When King visited the city , the bridge constructed not to divide the King and his companions in two buildings. So it creates an easy access. I think when passing by ,it's worth stopping for a while to see and learn its story.

In 1911, Benõ Ungár and Áron Mayer commissioned a new building to be made by the famous Hungarian architect Ede Magyar. The tower on the top of the building depicts figures of women holding hands in a circle dancing above the city.
