Gyor

Gyor is one of Hungary’s most dynamically developing cities with more than 130.000 inhabitants.
It is a mellow and colorful town with a vibrant cultural and university life.

Gyor is situated in the centre of the Vienna-Budapest-Bratislava triangle.
The radial road network of the settlement connects Slovakia from the north, Austria from the west, Lake Balaton from the south and Budapest from the east to the town. The relatively new Gyor-Pér airport makes the town accessible by air as well.

Gyor has always been an important city of education. In 1968 the Transportation and Telecommunications Faculty of Technical Sciences was established. It possesses a very significant economic potential by its international industrial park, the Audi, the Philips and other well known factories.

Gyor is a constantly changing, developing and growing city where the municipality plans the directions of the future, the realization of new economic, cultural, environmental, traffic and tourism models by involving the entire population.
