Lots to see in and around the square. The church is worth looking into as there are some amazing painted ceilings. The square is a busy place all day and into the night! Well worth a visit.

Nice places in the downtown of Eger. Plenty of restaurants around the square. On August 2021 we enjoyed Eger wine festival. I'm impressed, next day after festival Square were clear. No plastic cups,broken glasses,empty wine bottles. Well done Eger.

It's a very important historian place of Eger in Hungary. The Turkish army tried to attack Eger in the 16th century. Eger is also an important center of the Catholic religion. We call it, the city of monks.

Centrum of Eger.. 20/25 minutes walking inside of the park from Eger train station. No need bus to arrive there. Go walking and appreciating the beautiful nature of Eger mainly on Ady Endre utca. A very beautiful street. A good place for traveling with several restaurants and cafes in the centrum.

I daily visit Dobo Square as it is the only place near me that I can easily visit, my experience with the atmosphere this area is so amazing, this is the best open place where everyone can just go and enjoy watching different people including tourists from across.

What a lively city. This square has everything, live music, bars, restaurants, fountains. Little cars for children to hire. I could sit here for hours. There was a guy playing Greek music on a mandolin tonight and people were dancing
