Hungary

Hungary is a country rich in culture and history, its towns and cities virtually living, breathing works of art, its people quintessentially European - intellectual, hard working and hospitable. A small country, brimming with culture and natural beauty, Hungary is endowed with two-thousand-year-old Roman remains, four-hundred-year-old Turkish period monuments, beautiful Romanesque churches, examples of neo-Gothic and Art Nouveau architecture and imposing castles.

Lovers of nature and the great outdoors will relish exploring Europe's largest freshwater lake, Lake Balaton, or the many conservation areas, each concealing a wonderful protected world. Outdoor activities such as horse riding and water related pursuits are popular here.

The country has one of the finest folk traditions in Europe, producing excellent examples of embroidery, pottery, murals and objects carved from wood or bone.

Its musical contributions are just as rich and range from the rhapsodies of Franz Liszt and the operas of Ferenc Erkel to gypsy and folk music.

Hungary is also popular with visitors seeking rest and rejuvenation. Here there is a wealth of natural healing spring waters with spa facilities for visitors to choose from.

It is a country of diversity, full of sights and experiences that will impress, astonish and above all please its visitors.

Budapest

The capital of Hungary, known by many as the "Pearl of the Danube", is undoubtedly one of the most beautifully located cities in the world. The river Danube runs through the middle of the metropolis of two million, dividing hilly Buda with its narrow cobbled streets and mixture of medieval and neo-classical buildings from the Pest plain with its wide boulevards. Because of the picturesque panorama offered by the river and its bridges, the Parliament, the imposing Royal Castle, Fishermen's Bastion and the impressive Danube Embankment, UNESCO placed this site on the World heritage list.

It is a city where the pleasing harmony of different architectural styles and superb structures, atmospheric cafés, healing spas, gastronomy and culture, are combined with legendary hospitality offering an unforgettable experience for visitors.
