Lillafüred: It is a climatic health-resort built on the meeting point of the Garadna and Szinva valley, on the side of the Hámori Lake. The place took its name from Lilla Vay who was the wife of the minister of agriculture Count András Bethlen. The route leading from Miskolc to Lillafüred leads onto one of the most beautiful ravines of the country. Its two famous points are the Molnár-rock marked with a cross and the Puskaporos-ravine. The name of Lillafüred associated with the beautifully furnished Palace Hotel built between 1927 and 1930. The hotel is surrounded by a terraced hanging garden and a huge park. The Szinva valley with its romantic beauty and the Hámori Lake can be seen from the park, the terraces and rooms of the hotel. The lake itself is not natural; the embankment closing the valley and dam the water of the Garadna back was built in 1813 initiated by the Fazola family. The Palace Hotel held the Writer's Congress in 1933 (its memory is shown with a memorial tablet on the wall of the Hermann Ottó's memorial house). In this event, organized by János Kodolányi, 75 writers took part. Among them were Zsigmond Móricz, Dezso Kosztolányi and last but not least Attila József. The beautiful lines of the "Ode" were created there at that time: "I'm sitting here on a glittering rock-bench..." The murmur of the waterfall of the Szinva tumbling down beside the Palace Hotel also belongs to the atmosphere of Lillafüred. Remarkable sights of the area of the holiday resort are the caves, famous for their dropstones and archaeological findings from the prehistoric times. Lillafüred can be reached from Miskolc on either public road or narrow-gauge railway. The railway opened in 1921 and goes through beautiful rocky land, picturesque valleys and even Garadna can be reached on the route.

Diósgyőr: In the place of the ring-shaped stand castle standing here before the Conquest building of the huge stone castle commenced in the second half of the 13th century. In 1271 a new castle was mentioned in the charts. The Diósgyor Castle was developed into a strong fortress and furnished in luxurious style by Ernye ban's family. It was an unattainable fortress by the offensive weapons of that period. It was further extended by King Lajos the Great and it became an important political centre due to the Polish connections. At that time the castle was in its high-day. From the time of Zsigmond's reign until the Mohács Disaster it was the residence of the current queen. Afterwards it was given in gage to different families. By this time it had lost its strategic role but it still defended Miskolc and the neighbouring villages against the Turkish troops wanting to levy a payment on the territory. The deterioration of the castle started during the Turkish reign. In 1673 it got into the Kuruc's hands and therefore the commanding officer of the imperial army in Kosice sent a troop of 1500 soldiers to occupy it. This was the only siege of the castle that is known.
The exploration and restoration of the castle began in 1953. Owing to the constant restoration the Diósgyor Castle is one of the most important medieval monuments of the country. During the exploration several findings, objects and wings of building connected to the history of the castle were found. The Diósgyor Castle is not only a beauty spot but it also holds international and national open-air performances.

Miskolc-tapolca: Tapolca is a very old settlement. Anonymus already mentioned the name. Böngör and his son Bors and their descendants used to offer a sacrifice for their gods at the head of the hot spring. From this tradition stemmed the great Bors-Miskoucy clan which kept this place as their burial site after the adoption of Christianity and for this burial purpose a Benedictine monastery was built in honour of Péter and Pál. This monastery was already mentioned in charts in 1241.
Tapolca is suitable not only for relaxing and cheerful entertainment but it offers healing as well. The hot springs flowing at the foot of the Castle Hill with radioactive qualities have been famous for their healing power for centuries. The water is suitable for cardiac disorders, artery and circulatory diseases, problems with stomach and the illness of the sympathetic nervous system. The Cave-bath opened in 1959 lessens the pain of those people who suffer from asthma. The lake used for rowing on the side of the forest is surrounded by trees in leaf and varied with islands, which contribute to visitor's comfort. Tapolca holds some of the Miskolc Summer' events from year to year.

Miskolc National Theatre: This building is unique amongst the classicist buildings of Miskolc. This stone-built theatre was opened on 24th of August 1823 without public support but with the generous help of citizens of Miskolc and with the grants of some charitable lords. It was the first stone-built theatre in the country. In 1843 Miskolc went through its biggest conflagration in which the theatre was burnt down as well. It was rebuilt on t e basis of József Cassano’s plan in 1846. It was renovated several times throughout the years. The present reconstruction started in 1990. The reshaping, renovation and "the block building in" were done on the basis of Csaba Bodonyi’s plan. The Museum of Theatre and the History of the theatre was opened in the autumn of 1996 and can be found at 3 Déryné Street. Legacies of the actors and actresses were put in place, raising a monument to the memory of the actors who were related to Miskolc.
