The city of Pécs, south-southwest of Budapest, Hungary.

 "Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit." -- Jawaharlal Nehru========== (in the southwest of the country, near its border with Croatia) The city of Pécs is found at the southern foot of the Mecsek Mountains, 135 miles (220 km) south-southwest of Budapest. The site was occupied by the Roman town of Sopianae, the capital of the province of Southern Pannonia, which succeeded an Illyrian and Celtic settlement. In 1009 Stephen I, the first king of Hungary, made the town a bishopric. The name Pécs first appeared in the late 11th century. The city has a large main square with a well-preserved mosque (Ghazi Kassim Pasha), which is now a Roman Catholic church. The city’s cathedral, which was founded in 1009 on the site of an old Roman church, was extensively renovated and restored in the 1960s. Over time, the city has become the cradle of Hungarian ceramics, crafted at the Zsolnay factory. The Zsolnay factory in Pécs gained international fame for its ceramic ware (majolica), and the Zsolnay Cultural Quarter, containing 15 renovated historic buildings and 88 statues, features artisan shops and a collection of Zsolnay pieces. Now called the Cultural pearl of Hungary, Pécs is also the site of the Kodály Center, an architecturally significant concert hall that opened in 2010.
