Local brand of chocolate

by egonwegh

Local brand of chocolate: Africana. It has a special taste which I preferred over the imported American and European brands. Notice the picture of the African ladies that seem remarkably well acquainted with the Hungarian tongue, one of them saying to the other: "Ilyen finomsagokkal jo hazaterni!" (According to a language specialist I consulted that means: "It's nice to come home with such goodies")

West End City Center: Great shopping!

by devinemissd

Huge shopping centre situated right next to Nyugati trainstation.Here you find everything. And I mean everything! Shoes, clothes, furniture, food you name it! You can catch a movie and have something to eat right after. If you need to walk off all that food, just take the elevator to the top floor and have a stroll in the outdoor garden. Or if you´d rather want to stay inside, don´t miss the huge indoor waterfall. A must when you´re in Hungary is buying peppers in all it´s forms. Hungarian have peppers in everything!Hungary is probably also the cheapest place in the world to buy goose liver. Delicious! Having a nice bottle of the hungarian wine Tokaj with that is like being in heaven.

Street Vendors: Local Crafts

by kaloz

Street vendors. It is easy to overshop, the prices can be attractive. We were backpacking, so we mailed everything we bought back home. Buy whatever suits you. Make sure you haggle. The price may start high, but they will come down.

Market hall in Budapest

by tini58de

Oh, how well I remember the Market Hall in Budapest!I had the feeling, that they were only selling peppers: green ones, red ones, yellow ones, small and big ones etc......But they were special to me no matter which one I am talking about!

Delicious wine: Make a pleasure to yourself

by IngaA

Being in Hungary and not trying the local wine is an unpardonnable omission.In any department store or small shop there is wine department. Don't miss it:) Tokaj, Bikaver, Zweiguelt, Rissling,, ouff, my list can be endless.Hungary is known by its local wine of very high quality. In Tokaj there is one of the biggest wine caves in the World.Wine producing traditions are very ancient and well-kept. U will never regret if U try.
