Hungary is one of those countries that has almost everything for an amazing and unforgettable vacation. This is one of the main thermal spas in Europe, famous for its spa resorts and springs. A huge number of historical and cultural values are concentrated here, which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You can start your acquaintance with Hungary from two interesting cities - Budapest and Miskolc.
Budapest
The capital of Hungary can be safely called one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The appearance of the city harmoniously combines elements of Gothic, Venetian, Byzantine and modern architecture. Budapest enchants guests with incredibly beautiful nature, because the city is located in a lowland surrounded by the Carpathians, Alps and South Slavic mountain ranges. A tectonic fault in the place where Budapest is located provided the city with a huge number of thermal springs. The city is divided into two parts by the majestic Danube, and within the city there are several beautiful islands. Among the sights of Budapest, one can distinguish the Parliament building, built in the neo-Gothic style in the 19th century, St. Stephen's Basilica, Matthias Cathedral, Fisherman's Bastion, Buddha Fortress and the Royal Palace, which houses the National Art Gallery and History Museum.
Miskolc
Another incredibly beautiful city in Hungary, Miskolc, is located 170 kilometers from Budapest. It acquired the status of a city in 1364, and many centuries later became a major industrial center of the country. The city's population is multinational, which is reflected in its culture and architecture. Despite the fact that the official language in Miskolc is Hungarian, here you can often hear the dialects of other nationalities, including Germans, Gypsies, Romanians and Turks. The city attracts tourists with the Miskolctapolca Bath, located in caves that have been washed away by thermal waters over the millennia. Be sure to visit the resort of Lillafüred, which is amazing with a park with a mountain lake, numerous waterfalls and stalactite caves. Not far from Miskolc there is another place that you should never refuse to visit. This is a complex of caves with an underground lake, where a medical center specializing in the treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system is located. Miskolc is attractive for guests because here everyone will find entertainment and activities to their liking, regardless of age.
