It's not really off the beaten Path, but not too many travellers go to Szeged. Any why? It s a nice green city, with nice parks and it makes a good stopover for those who are on the way from Budapest to Romania.
Here is another picture of a line of phonographs (very expensive by the way) that give you the impression of entering into a world were instruments were alive.People selling this items were very proud of having them. I wonder where did they get them from ?....
A dutch friend at the youth hostel told me that he heard about a flea market not so far from Budapest.With our precary hungarian we asked the name to the people at the hotel and then we took some buses to get there. The path was a little bit complicated, and I really don't remember the name of this small town close to Budapest (I'll look for it, I promise...)When we get there, I saw one of the most beautiful flea markets I've visited. From ancient russian army coats, to precious phonographs and Indian sculptures.A little bit expensive, but a paradise for antiquities lovers...I got a small wooden decorated box for my mom, and I payed 1 dollar. (If you look around you can get good prices though....) I wish I had a panomaric camera... I only could capture a part of this huge place...
One of the nicest days we had was spent strolling through the wine regions of Eger. The sun was shining and it was lovely to walk the streets looking at the houses, the people and the scenery. It's always worth stepping aside, forgetting the map and averting the eyes away from the tourist signposts to soak up the atmosphere.
Sarospatak (close to the NW border of Hungary) has the feeling of real civic town - told me my boyfriend when he got back to Budapest from an art festival. One can feel the real self-government of the population, and that they care about their living space- he added. Sarospatak is - partly - famous for its collage: a lot of wellknown hungarian poet studied there. Also it has good wineries, and is close to Hungary's famous wine-region: Tokaj. Here you can have more pictures: http://www.sarospatak.hu/viragos/seta.html
Tourist never - or very rarely - go to the ugly places in Budapest, or in Hungary. Of course, I understand them, why would they want to see something nasty?! But the fact is, that they also belong to the country, to the country's past. I mean the socialist cities - which were built in the communist era purely beacuse of industrial goals. I also mean the southern part of the country (south-western), where a lot of - mostly roma (gypsy) - poor people live. 1. If you want to see a not too beautiful side of Budapest, than go to Csepel. Actually its a bit far from the city center (half an hour with bus from Boraros ter), but it worth a look. 2. In the inner districts of Budapest (at Prater street for example) you can see some of the poor city. Take tram 4 or 6 and get off at Rakoczi ter ('ter' means square), turn to the square and walk thru the streets. 3. In the countryside you can visit...
Modeled after Versaille, this country castle is a wonderful place to visit. Hayden composed there and a museum hold many original works. You have to catch an autobus from Sopron. WARNING say autobus as bus is the Hungarian word for f**k. Fertöd was funny because when we got off the autobus and asked for directions, no one seemed to know what we were looking for (haha). Those Hungarian vowel sounds are very hard for me to pronounce.
I think many travelers would agree that visiting a new country the nature or buildings are not always the most important.People is what makes the country alive:)Hungarians are very warm & friendly.(though i got such impression). (especialy men;) they show so much attention! (unfortunately lithuanians are quite different in this aspect :-/ ).
This island is located in the middle of the Danube. It´s a green paradise where the locals often come to relax after work. It has a couple of restaurants, a concert hall, outdoor swimmingpool and much more.
Hungary's capital straddles a gentle curve in the Danube. The city is well laid-out, rarely confusing, and ideal for walking. The walled Castle District is the premier destination and contains some of Budapest's most important monuments and museums. It consists of two district parts: the Old Town and the Royal Palace. Decorative churches and the famous Fishermen's Bastion. South of the Old Town is the Royal Palace , houses a number of museums, including the National Gallery. The oldest and most intersting parts of the city is O"buda. The area is remarkeble for its Roman riuns. North of O'buda is the Roman civilian town of Aquincum, the most complete in Hungary. The Aquincum Museum tries to put it all in perspective, unfortunately only in Hungarian.
