TAPOLCA is NOT what I expected...

[@juditboth1015]

Engem teljesen megragad, hogy milyen szeretettel beszélsz a mi hazánkról, hazánk dolgairól. Áldjon meg az Isten, minden jót neked Willie! ❤️🥰

You're becoming a legend. Great video. WE love the historical background. My wife is from KALOSCA!.....CONTINUED SUCCESS.

I am Hungarian, but I have never been to Tapolca. This is a beautiful city. It has a very good atmosphere.

[@TravelBound2024]

Another picturesque town. Thank you for showing these towns that are not necessarily tourist traps. I love seeing the architecture. I have never heard of this town but I am planning a trip to Hungary next year and now I want to go visit it. I keep watching your videos to give me ideas of places to visit that are off the beaten path. I was especially excited when you visited Jaszbereny as my ancestors were from that area, more specifically Jaszladany. Thanks Willie, I am looking forward to your big project!

Thank you for this video! I was born in Tapolca but I haven’t been there since I was 1.5 years old. Never seen it since. Parents relocated to Esztergom. This video means a lot! Thanks Willie!

Batsányi János was a famous poet, who was born in Tapolca, Baumberg Gabriella was his wife, who was also a poet :) Glad you were in my home town and you liked it! You speak Hungarian very well, impressive! 😊

Wow that looked beautiful

This town is one of my favourites in Hungary, I'm really glad you're showing smaller towns like this, the one thing I hate about Budapest is that it's full of tourists, and smaller towns like this are very underrated. I think they show Hungary way better than Budapest. I live in a small town nearby called Jánosháza, so I've visited it quite a few times. If you haven't already, you should also visit Tihany, which is a bit more touristy but it's beautiful, Sümeg, which has a beautiful castle, and Kőszeg, which is a bit further away, next to the Austrian border, it's a beutiful town, and next to it is írott-kő, and the view from there is amazing.

Your videos about Hungary are so interesting. I would like to visit Hungary again , I was only in Gyor in the past, and is easy for me to understand you as I live 16 years in England ,but native Czech.

Sziasztok! Nagyon jó, hogy ellátogattál, Willie, Tapolcára, és hogy kiderült, hogy magad is tapolcai vagy. : ) Csodaszép és békés a város is és környéke is. : ) A gótikus templomunk van a háttérben. : ) Üdvözlet egy helyitől, aki itt is született : ) ✝🛐❤Tóth Gyöngyi

[@jansoltes971]

My man mentioned Romans, Longobards and Avars, while the town itself bears a (typical) Slavic name. 😉It means "warm spring/water/stream". That´s a detail of course, I enjoyed the video!

[@MikusLiza]

Hello! I like your site! Congratulations on it! It's nice of you to learn almost the most difficult language in the world. You're doing well! 👍 If you want to drink real good Hungarian wine, visit Villány! Even the French can envy some of them. 😉

[@kristoffejes7452]

Tapolca was a stronghold of the Rákosi-Gerő klikk, which thrived to transform Tapolca into a "steel-city" (unsure if thats a legit word, in Hungarian it exists:)) with factories and enormous buildings. Fortunately their apirations were met with little success, but you can still see the communist effect on Tapolca.

[@frankexplores4794]

Nice. I was hoping that you would film the Y houses as well. Remarkable socialist architecture. But beware, it is a bit of a slum. When I was filming there, some guys honked at me and gave me the finger

[@withwillie]

good idea, but i only had 2 hours. it was a family trip and they let me run free for a little :D

[@frankexplores4794]

@@withwillieI know that situation too well.😢 However you did a great job, considering you had only two hours under family pressure.

[@zfunk9]

I lived in them when they were new from the late 1970s to 1984 (ipszilon we called them). Was nice back then from what I remember. Many fond memories of living in Tapolca.

[@LEK-we2hh]

Mit kolbaszolsz te ott ? 🙈🤭

[@MrAkurvaeletbe]

Wait so you actually have hungarian family? I thought you were 100% american/nothing to do with hungary other than your wifes/girlfriends side of the family..

[@withwillie]

Na that is my wife’s side of the family
