Popular places in Hungary



A dynamic blend of old and new radiates from Budapest to the far-flung corners of this seen-it-all land. Hungary is no longer the country of handlebar-moustached, whip-cracking horsemen, but a place of handsome medieval cities, fashionable lakeside beaches and hearty peasant cuisine.

Balaton

The Mongols trashed it, the Turks occupied it, the Austrians bombed it, but poets still write about Balaton’s unconquered beauty. Dominated by its lake of warm, silky waters, this is Hungary’s Riviera; dance till dawn on Lake Balaton’s shores or drink local wine in the hills.

Budapest

Budapest may be a tour de force of Habsburg splendour and classic thermal baths, but this city has its head very much in the open-minded, progressive present. Free of the shackles of the former socialist system, a dynamic cultural undercurrent once again flows freely down the Danube and across the city’s grandly designed boulevards.
