Hungary has always marched to a different drummer \u2013 speaking a language, preparing dishes and drinking wines like no others. It\u2019s Europe at its most exotic.<\/span><\/p>\n

Super Structures<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hungary\u2019s scenery is more gentle than striking, more pretty than stunning. But you can\u2019t say the same thing about the built environment across the land. Architecturally Hungary is a treasure trove, with everything from Roman ruins and medieval town houses to baroque churches, neoclassical public buildings and Art Nouveau bathhouses and schools. And we’re not just talking about\u00a0Budapest<\/a>\u00a0here; walk through Szeged or Kecskem\u00e9t,\u00a0Debrecen<\/a>\u00a0or Sopron and you\u2019ll discover an architectural gem at virtually every turn. Some people (ourselves included) go out of their way for another glimpse of their ‘hidden’ favourites like the Re\u00f6k Palace in\u00a0Szeged<\/a>, the buildings of K\u0151szeg\u2019s Jurisics t\u00e9r or the\u00a0Mosque Church<\/a>\u00a0in\u00a0P\u00e9cs<\/a>. It is almost as if they’re afraid these delightful structures will crumble and disappear unless they are regularly drenched in admiring glances.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eat, Drink & Be Magyar<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

There is a lot more to Hungarian food than goulash and it remains one of the most sophisticated styles of cooking in\u00a0Europe<\/a>. Magyars even go so far as to say there are three essential world cuisines: French, Chinese and their own. That may be a bit of an exaggeration but Hungary’s reputation as a food centre dates largely from the late 19th century and the first half of the 20th and, despite a fallow period during the chilly days of communism, is once again commanding attention. So too are the nation’s world-renowned wines \u2013 from the big-bodied reds of Vill\u00e1ny and white Olazrizling from Badacsony to honey-gold Tokaj.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Hot Water<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hungarians have been ‘taking the waters\u2019 supplied by an estimated 300 thermal springs since togas were all the rage and Aquincum was the big Smoke. They still do \u2013 for therapeutic, medicinal and recreational purposes \u2013 but the venues have changed somewhat. Today they range from authentic bathhouses dating from the Turkish occupation and Art Nouveau palaces to clinical sanatoriums straight out of a Thomas Mann novel. This is where the older generation like to rejuvenate and catch up on the local gossip. More and more though, you’ll see clear chlorinated waters in organically-shaped pools that bubble, squirt and spurt at different rhythms and temperatures alongside the requisite wellness centre offering a myriad of treatments. Good for the kids, good for the grown-ups, good for the whole family.<\/span><\/p>\n
