Nyíregyháza (English spelling)

Japanese: ニーレジハーザ（英語表記）Nyíregyháza

The central city of the Nir region in northeastern Hungary. A distribution center for agricultural products. The surrounding area is sandy, and potatoes, corn, tobacco, sunflowers, and fruit trees are cultivated thriving. The city declined for a time during the Ottoman occupation in the 16th and 17th centuries, but Slovaks settled there in the 18th century, and the railway was opened in the second half of the 19th century, resulting in rapid development. Light industry also became popular after World War II. The health resort of Szoshtó mineral springs is located nearby. Population: 114,596 (1991 estimate).
