Visegrád, a town steeped in Hungarian history

【Visegrád】is actually a 600-year-old castle. It was built by the rulers of the Angevin dynasty of Hungary after they won the war of the throne. In the 14th-15th centuries, it was one of the palaces of the Hungarian king. In 1335, King Charles I invited the King of Bohemia and the King of Poland to hold the "Visegrád Conference" in this town, proposing political and trade cooperation, and establishing the first Central European Union. Therefore, this castle has a very important political status. The castle is built on the steep bank of the Danube River. On the opposite bank, there is a town built in layers between the valleys. This section of Hungary is mountainous, and the road to get there winds through the valleys, and the towns are built on the mountains. The castle has a gate on the hillside, and the main building has collapsed a lot, leaving only the main building with a hall and the second floor. The hall displays wax figures, crowns, and guards of the three kings at that time. There are more than 10 deer antlers hanging on the wall of the restaurant. It can be seen that the forest was dense and there were many animals and plants at that time. A singer stood on the second floor, playing the guitar and singing a distant song. However, on rainy days, tourists are in a hurry and few people beg for alms. The castle may have been dangerous and majestic at that time, but now it is mostly abandoned, leaving only three or four floors of broken walls. It must have been an important military fortress when it was built 600 years ago. However, the current ruins are far less dangerous than the Zafra Castle in Spain. It was raining lightly that day, and the sky was gloomy. The Danube River turned a corner here, and the castle stood high above, overlooking the vast mountains and rivers, and the beautiful land in the distance~ 🌟Highlights: Visegrád is the place where the kings of Hungary, Bohemia, and Poland held the Visegrád Conference 600 years ago, proposing political and trade cooperation, and establishing the first Central European Union. It has an important political status. 👍Most recommended: The castle is built on the bank of the Danube River, and the castle is below the steep valley, with a dangerous terrain. You can see a large town between the valleys on the opposite bank, and the scenery is beautiful. 📍Detailed address: From Shandan Town, walk more than 20 kilometers along the Danube River, pass through the mountains and forests, and come to an ancient castle on the top of a 300-meter mountain. ✅Must-try: On one side of the Shengbao River, you can see a big turn of the Danube River. When the weather is good, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and very photogenic. ❤Recommended reason: Visegrád Castle has an important historical status, but after all, it has been attacked and breached twice in the past 600 years, and the castle has collapsed a lot. Now it has been repaired, but it is only a historical relic.
