Konig Pince Winery
A pearl of Budafok...Kőnig Winery, initially part of the Prince Windischgrätz Lordship, is a prestigeous family owned wine cellar system under the slopes of Budapest-Budafok. After the second world war this was the so called small-export cellar of the Hungarian state. Wines up to 13 000 hectoliters, from five historical Hungarian wine-regions are aged here, besides the production of several own brand dessert wines.

Szentendre Travel Vlog | Day Trip From Budapest, Hungary
Come join us as we take a day trip from Budapest, Hungary to visit the quaint village of Szentendre. This riverside town in Pest county (named after Saint Andrew) is only a 30 minute train ride away from the centre of Budapest and makes for a fantastic getaway if you're feeling a bit overwhelmed by being in the city. With plenty of museums, cobbled streets, churches and riverside location the pace slows down for foodies on a quest to just chill out.
We ended up wandering around and eating most of the day starting off by devouring Langos (Lángos - Hungarian fried dough with various toppings) including ones with cheese and cinnamon. Afterwards we visited a wine cellar museum to cool down before tucking into a big lunch that featured goulash (gulyás) and red wine. We also made time to visit a Marcipan museum featuring enormous marzipan sculptures (some almost 100 kg in size) before finally chilling out by the riverside in a lawn chair waiting to catch our Danube river cruise back to Budapest.
Overall, it was a great little trip and something we'd highly recommend for those with ample time to spare in Budapest, Hungary.

Szentendre Travel Vlog | Day Trip From Budapest, Hungary video transcript:
Well good morning good morning. It is a beautiful Friday here in Budapest so today we're planning a day trip. A day trip. We are going to Szentendre. Or at least that is how we think it is pronounced. It means Saint Andrews. Yeah, and I mean to get there we're going to have to take what a some kind of a metro. Metro. Train. And then I think we're going to be taking a river cruise on the way back. Yes. So today is going to be about exploration and also the transportation too. Let's go.
We have arrived! We've arrived. It was a 30 minute journey.
Alright guys so we have arrived in the center of town and that was a very short walk wasn't it?
Yeah, super short and already our first impressions I think of this place is that it is so cute and that it is so quaint and quiet compared to Budapest.
We researched this one place online that serves langos and it looks like a fried dough. We ordered the variety with sour cream and cheese on top and I also put like garlic sauce and hot sauce. Oh my gosh that is fully loaded.
And on to dessert that did not last long I have to say. The first one. The langos. Yeah, we were pretty hungry so.
So if you can see this here there is tonnes of icing sugar on the side and we did you order the cinnamon one?
So Sam is not the biggest fan of museums and this town has a lot museums but one of them is wine museum. Yeah.
I got goulash (gulyás) of course because when in Hungary. Gagaga-goulash.
Look at my bowl. Let's call it a cauldron.
So we have just entered the Marcipan museum. And I'm used to seeing like small little works of marzipan that are edible but they usually are like small. And right now we're going to see some monster works of art made with marzipan. Wait until you see this.
Mickey Mouse over here. Let's look at him. He weighs 94 kilograms.
So we may have overdone it in the food and wine department. We are stuffed. Yes. So since we've arrived in town we've had that fried dough. The langos. Yeah. We've had lunch. We've had lunch with wine. I had goulash. Yes.
And then we also got. We had a little snack with the marzipan. Oh right, we had that we went to the cafe. Didn't we? We had cake. Now we're having drinks. Anyways, the reason we're kind of chilling right now is we've decided we want to take a river cruise back. And that doesn't go until five. And right now it is 3 pm. We feel we've had a really good walk through the town.
This is part of our Travel in Hungary video series showcasing Hungarian food, Hungarian culture and Hungarian cuisine.

SUMMARY
=======
The Federal City of Bonn (German pronunciation: [bɔn] (listen)) is a city on the banks of the Rhine in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, with a population of over 300,000. About 24 km (15 mi) south-southeast of Cologne, Bonn is in the southernmost part of the Rhine-Ruhr region, Germany's largest metropolitan area, with over 11 million inhabitants.
Because of a political compromise following German reunification, the German federal government maintains a substantial presence in Bonn, and the city is considered a second, unofficial, capital of the country. Bonn is the secondary seat of the President, the Chancellor, the Bundesrat and the primary seat of six federal government ministries and twenty federal authorities. The unique title of Federal City (German: Bundesstadt) reflects its important political status within Germany.Founded in the 1st century BC as a Roman settlement, Bonn is one of Germany's oldest cities. From 1597 to 1794, Bonn was the capital of the Electorate of Cologne, and residence of the Archbishops and Prince-electors of Cologne. Composer Ludwig van Beethoven was born in Bonn in 1770. From 1949 to 1990, Bonn was the provisional capital of West Germany, and Germany's present constitution, the Basic Law, was declared in the city in 1949. Berlin was re-affirmed by the Bundestag in Bonn as the capital of Germany, though due to the country's division a seat of government was maintained there - only in the eastern half - solely by the German Democratic Republic. From 1990 to 1999, Bonn served as the seat of government – but no longer capital – of reunited Germany.
The headquarters of Deutsche Post DHL and Deutsche Telekom, both DAX-listed corporations, are in Bonn. The city is home to the University of Bonn and a total of 20 United Nations institutions, including headquarters for Secretariat of the UN Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Secretariat of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), and the UN Volunteers programme.
