The symbol of the city is the Mosque Church, the largest building from the Turkish accupation still sanding in Hungary.Pecs synagogue another of Pecs extraordinary monuments. Amount the city's best museums are the Victor Vasarely Museum and the Zsolnay Porcelain Exhibit..
Pecs is the most interesting cities in Hungary.Superb museums and some of the finest Turkish monuments is the country. It is also renowned for its music, opera and ballet, and has some of Hungary's best leatherwork.
Everyone loves Eger, beautifully preservedBaroque architecture, the home of the celebrated Bull's Blood wine.The best overview of the town is from the 13-century Eger Castle, Eger Cathedral and a40 metre high Minaret.
This street in Budapest is named for our family. We enjoyed spending time there and took many photos. My photos from this trip are in a square format, so you have to click to enlarge to see the whole image. Hungarian Lesson: ut -- street; utca -- little street.
I went there.. a whole piece of grassland with some occasional animals... (too bad I haven't go deep enough into it though) I heard that during the summer, more animals can be spotted, but too bad I was in October so I didn't really see much.
If you have time...do not miss the area around the city of EGER (150 km east of Budapest).Eger (photo) is a pretty town with interesting old town and castle. Here you feel more in Hungary than in very touristic places such Buda and Balaton. Downtown there is thermal bathing. West of Eger you should go to the Matra Mountains, which is the highest (and one of the only) mountains in Hungary, the top being at Kekesteto, 1014 meters above sea. A windy road drives you to the summit. There you can go to a Telecom Tower platform for a wonderful view of the surroundings.
If you wander out of the centre of Budapest or even take a stroll out from the old town, you may stumble across some wonderful Hungarian streets. Then you can visit non touristic shops and restuarants or (as is my preference) cheap drinking venues with cheap Hungarain beer.
North West and South Western corners of Hungary are not that touristic and hold their own specific (real Hungarian?) atmosphere. Eger and Miskolc are historical towns in the middle of Hungarian red wine district. The longest river in Hungary is the Tisza, that flows from North Eastern corner through magnificent puszta-land into the Donau (Danube). This is the land of grass-steppes, endless sunflowerfield and acres as well as agricultural villages (from far recognised by their watertowers).
There is a little artist colony, with about 2,500 inhabitants called Szalka. I have to look up the location again, but this is where I stayed for a week in 1995 in little bungalows upon a hill. The locals were quite curious about the rambling Americans!
Many people get very excited about the rest of the city, they forget to visit Margit Sziget (Margaret Island). It's right along the Danube between Buda and Pest, very easy to get to.If you go, you can rent bicycles of all sorts (single, double, etc.). It's very relaxing, full of beautiful nature, and if you get hungry you can stop at the stands to get something.
