A cradle of culture, Hungary is world-renowned for its grand architecture and stunning landscapes. Once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Hungary later came under Soviet influence before becoming fully independent in 1989. Its capital, Budapest, is known for having one of the most beautiful Parliament buildings in the world, as well as the Danube River, the iconic Fisherman’s Bastion, and its famous thermal baths.
But Hungary is so much more than just Budapest. The serene Lake Balaton, the baroque city of Eger, the charming village of Szentendre, and the picturesque town of Pécs, nestled in the Mecsek Mountains, are all well worth looking into.
There’s no shortage of things to do in Hungary. Take a Danube river cruise, see Budapest lit up in the dark on a night tour, or visit the scenic Danube Bend. For adventure seekers, Budapest’s underground caves offer a thrilling experience, while budding sommeliers can enjoy a wine tasting in the Tokaj region. From culture and nature to relaxation, Hungary has something for every traveler.
