What we love about Pecs
Operations Training Specialist
Pécs is my favorite countryside town for a couple of different reasons. The people are super friendly, my favorite wine region is just a 30 minute drive away from it, and the Zsolnay quarter is something out of this world. It's a perfect destination to experience the Hungarian countryside.
Operations Executive
Pecs is such a charming university town with beautiful squares, medieval history, art, great food, and wine. I visited Pecs a few years ago with my family for the weekend and I was blown away. I would recommend the Zsolnay Cultural quarter where you can learn about heritage, craftsmanship, and more.
