Veszprém is one of Hungary's oldest cities and it is known as the city of Queens. I wanted to know why so I took a little trip there last sunday to find out. Along the way I met some friendly locals, had a gander down at the Christmas market and was thoroughly impressed by the beautiful architecture. I didn't realize that Veszprém was going to be the European capital of culture in 2023. Because of this honor, much of the castle district was roped off due to the preparations for the January kick-off event. However, there was still plenty to do and see and as always we were able to make our own fun. So come join me in Veszprém and learn why they call it the city of queens after all. And thank you to all the Veszprémi emberek who I met for making me feel so welcome in your lovely Hungarian city right on the shores of Lake Balaton. I will be back when the weather is warmer and we can delight by the fountains together.

Kedves Willie! Megkönnyeztem ezt a videót. Örülök, hogy ennyire tetszett neked az én szülővárosom, csodálatos hely. Kár, hogy a várban ekkora a felfordulás, de ha jövőre visszatérsz, igazi szépségében láthatod. Az idő sem volt jó, ennek ellenére láthatóan jól érezted magad. Állítom, itt élnek a legkedvesebb, barátságosabb emberek, néhánnyal találkoztál is és megbizonyosodhattál róla. Imádom!!! Tavasszal, nyáron el kell menni az állatkertbe is, tetszeni fog, teljesen más, mint a budapesti. És ami nem hátrány, közel van a Balaton! Szuper videó!!👍😘
Awww thanks so much ❤
Ezt csak megerösiteni tudom:-) Ezert vettünk itt egy lakast,elhagyva a fövarost(en tösgyökeres pesti vagyok a ferjem is hosszu eveket elt ott) Mindenki baratsagos,kedves,segitökesz.
Kedves star70! Nagyon örülök, hogy jól érzitek magatokat Veszprémben. Több évtizede élek Pesten, de ha elhagyom Fehérvárt, melegszik a lelkem, hogy megyek haza. Tényleg ilyen emberek nincsenek máshol. 🥰

@@star-wp1tk 7 éve Budapesten élek (kecskeméti vagyok amúgy), alá tudom támasztani, hoyg az elmúlt 2-3 évben (nyilván ebben a vírus és válság is benne van) gyakorlatilag egy putri lett a főváros, sajnos; pedig szerettem azért... Remélem, mihamrabb menni tudok majd innen.
Great video. I've ridden to Veszprém on a motorcycle years ago. Will be traveling there again, next year, for a wedding of a beloved relative;
my wife is half Hungarian.
Sehr schöne stadt,habe 2 jahre dort gearbeitet,von 76 bis 78 als koch ,in hallische bierstuben.gruß aus halle.❤😂
Nagyon örülök, hogy tetszett neked Veszprém! Köszönöm a szép szavakat. Lassan 30 éve élek Veszprémben és nagyon szeretem.
Jó városi túra! És ebben az évben Veszprém a kultúra fővárosa. Várom a további videókat! ❤
Pumpkin good!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I am crying. Joke of the day Will! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Köszi Willie
Köszönjük, Willie! Gyere jövőre is! :)

My Hometown. :) But very cold as you see, that's why I moved to Iceland. :D
Bro Iceland is colder than Hungary i think? :)
Thank you Buddy! This country and culture what we defend from any who want to change.
Veszprém name comes from the polish Bez prim - in the time of Boleslav. Many times we gave queens to many countries, and the gossip was that the HU queen doesn't really love Boleslav, and she had a secret love. To avoid political issues, Boleslav has sent home the kid, and the HU queen, and received land where is the city built. Later on many other queens home was this city.
Very interesting and funny 😁 Love your accent 😁
St Florian is the protecting saint (védőszent!!) of the firefighters. That's the reason behind the statue.
Ahhh that explains it
Its a statue of the archangel Michael.
That dilapidated house has so much potential 😍
Szent Flórián, the saint of the firemen 🥸😁
thank you!
Well, that's where my wife and I were on our honeymoon :) at 3:49 you walks past the hotel where we spent some very pleasant days :D
Great Video Nagyon Yo Baratom
Szia! Nagyon jó volt "csatlakozni" ehhez a sétához is. Csípem ahogyan beszéled a magyart. :)

Hi, do you have anu videos of Ajka and the sunday market in Ajka?
I wonder if the statue with wings with “M” on his breast is St Michael? köszönöm szépen for speaking with locals in Hungarian and recording it. It really helps as I’m trying to learn Hungarian!!
Kedves Vilmos! Legközelebb próbáld meg lila hagymával enni a Jókai bablevest, mert fogsz kapni 1 új élményt. Ha tudsz csinálj nekünk 1 tanító videót, mely 2 nyelvű, min. fél óra, (hogyan tanulj meg angolul, pár hónap alatt. de nap mint nap meghallgatjuk, csak magyaros legyen a téma) és amiben lassabban beszélsz! Ui: sajnos sikerült olyan szavakat írnom, melyet a feleséged majd lefordít Neked. Örülök, hogy 1 ilyen jó fej amerikai srác itt él Magyarországon! Sok sikert! Atys Debrecen. Hol vagy Matyi? Szeretettel Atys!
Faustus was an inventor, Humanist, and polyhistoric, polimath ...
Nagyon jó fej vagy. Isten hozott Veszprémben.
Lovely walk! I've noticed in a lot of your videos that there are hardly any people on the streets. Where is everyone??
Belo país amo Hungria 🇭🇺
Hey! Do you remember me? In Debrecen my friends and i see that you are filming in the street. And i said "hi" and you give to us stickers. And a little later you come back because you forget your glove.
Yeah of course! You will be in my Debrecen video!! It’s coming soon :)
Tell all your friends to follow so they can see 🐧😎🐧
You guys were Nagyon menő!!!!

Lol, my friend told me that he met you in Veszprém and he even went with you to a café called Tizen1. How small this country is! :D It's a shame I wasn't there
Edit: Just checked the video and you indeed went to Tizen1 but with a different guy. Maybe it was on another occasion? :D Or were there others around you too who didn't want to be featured in the video?
no I know who you are talking about, I met him but he wasn't around when I was filming. bence, right?
@@withwillie Yes it was him :D You have a really good name memory, man :D
It's a shame that i couldn't meet you here. I didn't even knew that ur coming :D If you ever come back to Veszprém, drop me a dm, i'll show you the best locations here, and good beers ofc :)
Sounds great 👍
Jó otthon lenni... Thanks, the answer is Gizella.
Yeah those nice ladies taught me :)
Just so you know the name Veszprém are 2 words, "Vesz" means 'lost' and "prém" means 'fur'. Because there is a story that the queen lost her fur in this city and thats where the name came from. I dont know much about it eather but maybe its interesting for you. :)
Are you from Queens ? ))
Láttad-e már Veszprémet, hol a fázós vesz prémet?
That boat statue in Veszprém, could it be Roman? (I'm no expert..)
Just found out it’s of Noah’s ark
@@withwillie Noah ark but also a monument of the Armenian genocide.
@@withwillie That makes sense now...
The ship is Noes ship from the bible.
It's interesting to see a smiling Hungarian maybe for six months in Veszprém 🙄

Van. CC - nem Latod?
Dude, you would be great if you just cleaned up your language! Leave the f-- bombs behind, you are not 15 any more; make it family friendly! Otherwise, very rich and interesting content, both for foreigners and for Hungarians.
Ki fizeti ezt a csókát hogy videókat csináljon a lepukkadt Magyarországról? Az állam, vagy valami turisztikai hivatal?
Már nem megyének hívjuk, hanem vármegyének.
I bet 99.9% of your viewers are Hungarians.
Magyarországon nem szokás idegeneket megszólitani hogy hogy vagy. Ez amerikai szokás. A magyarok nem szeretik az idegeneket nem szeretnek köszöngetni. Csak azzal akit ismernek.
