We only experienced the hotel and restaurant, but it was delicious and comfortable. We were there for a wedding, it was beautiful, the food was great, the park was nice, so everything as it should be

Karolyi Mansion is not far from Székesfehérvár takes 15 minutes by car. Also possible by buss to travel. This Palace will take your breath away. It was contracted in classic style. It has a luxurious restaurant. There is a Hotel here also. Not expensive, 100 EUR/ night.

It's a beautiful building. Our guide was kind and we learnt a lot about the history of the building. The park is pleasant with a lake in it.

Looks nice after the reconstruction but the building doesn't stand out. The beautiful park however makes it worth visiting!

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
