Places of Interest in Hungary

About Hungary

Hungary is packed with plenty to do from bird-watching, cycling and horse riding to relaxing in thermal spas. Lake Balaton is a must but don’t neglect the other towns and regions off the beaten track, such as the medieval town of Sopron, close to the Austrian border or one of the lesser-known villages in the many wine-growing regions. With a rich and varied culture, classical notes from composers such as Béla Bartók and Franz Liszt live in harmony with traditional gypsy rhapsodies and contemporary beats in Hungary’s capital city, Budapest. From an imposing castle, view the romantic Danube River, as it dramatically splits the city in two or enjoy comfort food at its best in a cosy restaurant with the smell of rustic paprika-infused goulash filling the air.

Regent Holidays can arrange tailor-made holidays, fly-drive holidays and group tours to Hungary as well as Budapest city breaks with a choice of hotels from 3 to 5 star.

What to buy...

You can't go on a Holiday to Hungary and fail to be drawn in to the many restaurants and eateries by the smell of paprika-infused traditional Hungarian dishes,  such as a hearty goulash with dumplings. Different varieties of sweet and spicy paprika, both fresh, powdered and dried can be purchased on street stalls, in shops and in local markets. Other great buys in Hungary include lace and embroidered tablecloths, beautifully hand-painted Herend porcelein vases and of course, a bottle or two of Hungary's many famous wines.

Regent Recommends...

Any holiday to Hungary should include a visit to one of its wineries to taste not only the internationally renowned deep fruity red ‘Bulls Blood’ wine and the thick, syrupy amber Tokaj dessert wine, but also many other lesser known varieties of red and white wines alike. Hungary has always been blessed with the perfect climate and soil for viticulture and wine making. A wide variety of soil types and sunshine in abundance have made Hungary an important wine making region that dates back to the Celts in the 3rd century A.D.
