This country is a member of the European Union. Hungary continues to make tourists happy with the experience they had while visiting the place. Here you will see the low mountains, the lakes, the rivers and the natural wonders that the place offers.
1.) Castle Hill
On Castle Hill alone, one will have a whole range of places to enjoy, such as the Royal Palace, which happens to be the most popular place on the hill. There is also the National Gallery which offers a large collection of paintings to view. And if you want to see the Danube, the Fisherman’s Bastion will be the perfect place to be.
2.) Museums on the Hill
If you think your visit to Castle Hill ends with Fisherman’s Bastion, think again. You will not get tired of the museums that abound in the place. They have the Budapest Historical Museum, the Music Museum, the Military Museum, the Marzipan Museum and the Pharmacy Museum, as well as the Museum of Medieval Judaism.
3.) Warehouses
Aggtelek is one of the towns located in the north of Hungary, quite close to the border with Slovakia. What you will find here is a beautiful cave system known for its size. In fact, visiting the entire Baradla cave will take you at least five hours.
4.) Lake Maggiore
Balaton is recognized as the largest among the Central European lakes. You can do some hiking in the area or try sailing or swimming in it, especially during the summer. You can also add a trip to the wineries as a bonus visit and relax in the hot spring baths that are available on site to soothe your weary feet.
5.) GödöllQ
This city is located in the county of Pest, where tourists often stop to take a look at the Royal Palace, which was the home of Emperor Franz Joseph and Queen Elizabeth. You must also see its Town Center to visit the Grassalkovich Palace. There is also the city museum that exhibits art nouveau by Hungarian artists.
6.) City Parks
While in GödöllQ, you can try to visit some of its parks that surround the palace, and there are three of them called Also, FelsQ and Erzsébet parks. The first park boasts of the World Tree, which is a giant sculpture. In the second, you can walk along a path full of chestnut trees and trees where Queen Sisi used to go for her horseback rides. The third park is considered the best of the three.
7.) Tokaj
This small town is known for its white wines, so that easily means visiting wineries and having a sip. In addition, you can also go mountain climbing in the Bald Mountain or go fishing in the river. If you happen to be there during the last week of May, then enjoy their Wine Festival, and if it’s the first weekend of October, then the Harves festival awaits.
8.) Tiszavirágzás
You may come across some Tiszas in the middle of June. These mayflies are sometimes mistaken for flowers, and although they were once affected by pollution, their colony is slowly gaining back. They are definitely a sight to see and hopefully you get to see them on your visit.
9.) Eat Hungarian
Hungarians call their cuisine Magyar Konyha, where the food is generally spicy and tasty. In fact, paprika is a national spice for them. You can try their native goulash, chicken with paprika sauce, and paprika carp soup, and goose is also a good main ingredient in Hungarian dishes, so expect to see them on the menu.
10.) Drinks
Unsurprisingly, Hungary has a list of one of the best wines such as Villány, Badacsony, Szekszárd, Tokaj and Eger. There is even a story surrounding some of the wine names, such as Bull’s Blood of Eger. Either way you have it, their wines are something you’ll want to take home to remember.
