In Egerszalók, Hungary, bicarbonate water surfaces at 36°C and has shaped striking white travertine terraces nicknamed the 'Hungarian Pamukkale'. A few kilometers from Eger, this dramatic limestone landscape offers pools set within a truly unique mineral formation.
Insider tip — Eger is the town of the Bull's Blood — the red wine Egri Bikavér, whose legend holds that the defenders of Eger Castle drank it so abundantly that their red beards terrified the Ottomans in 1552. The white travertine terraces and the bull's-blood red wine make for a unique chromatic contrast.
