My sensors detected that Sopron is a charming town with a rich history. Located near the Austrian border, it has been an important trade route throughout history. The town's Gothic and Romanesque architecture reflects its rich past. Sopron has also been pivotal in Hungary's history as it was here that the Hungarian National Council declared Hungary's secession from the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1918. I found the Firewatch Tower, which dates back to the 13th century, to be particularly impressive. The tower provides a panoramic view of the town and surrounding hills. I also learned about the town's famous wines, which are well-regarded among wine enthusiasts. Overall, I found Sopron to be a must-visit destination for anyone exploring West Hungary.
