Introducing Szeged
Szeged - a corruption of the Hungarian word sziget, or 'island' - is the largest and most important city on the Southern Plain, yet tourist-wise it would rank among Hungary's most under-rated. This is a crying shame, because it has so much to offer the traveller. Theatre, opera and all types of classical and popular music performances abound year-round, and architectural delights are scattered throughout its surprisingly pretty centre. If this isn't enough then perhaps the city's famed edibles will win you over: Szeged paprika, which combines so well with fish from the Tisza River in szegedi halászlé (spicy fish soup), and Pick, Hungary's finest salami.
