‘The secret of water
conceived in the ice…’
- Jack Kerouac: On the Road -

because of
 many festivals and interesting attractions (sight-seeings),
 wonderful historical monuments,
 delicious gastronomy and visiting the wine growing areas,
 excellent hotels, spas and wellness services,
 beneficial effect of fabulous thermal water,
 hiking in the mountains (Mátra, Bükk, Mecsek…) and
 swimming in the lake Balaton, lake Velence and lake Tisza…

 At last but not least, because Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Robert Redford, Salma Hayek, Goldie Hawn, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kate Beckinsale, Madonna, Antonio Banderas, Daniel Craig, Sylvester Stallone, Hugh Jackman and Bruce Willis lived in Hungary and they were satisfied with everything – in my opinion.

Hungarian wines are winning more and more prestigious awards…
…from the likes of Vin Italy, Vin Expo Bordeaux and London's IWSC for its Cabernets, Merlots and Sauvignon Blancs.
Award winning wines in 2008
Hungarians became richer by 37 gold medals
and 80 silver medals on the IX. VinAgora
National Wine Competition.
In 2008, our drinks were the winners from 554 wines of 21 countries there.

The biggest such event is the Budapest Wine Festival, held every September on Buda Castle Hill.

when in 1861 Hungarian immigrant, Ágoston Haraszthy,
shipped 300 different vine-stocks to the West Coast.
Wine is of such importance to Hungarians that it is
mentioned in Hungary’s national anthem…’

Ruin-pubs in Budapest (Romkocsmák)
‘Ruinpubs often move to a new place, or close for some years, then open in a new place again. They are are not only good places to drink and have a party but also function as cultural community areas with film clubs, theatre performances, concerts, exhibitions, and creative workshops, too. They do not work in a franchise system, there is no specified design, and there are no rules, how to make them. Every place has a unique style and atmosphere.’

Buso Carnival

‘According to the most popular legend, during the Turkish occupation of the territory, people from Mohács fled the town, and started living in the nearby swamps and woods to avoid Ottoman (Turkish) troops. One night, while they were sitting and talking around the fire, an old Šokac man appeared suddenly from nowhere, and said to them:
‘Don't be afraid, your lives will soon turn to good and you wil return to your homes. Until that time, prepare for the battle, carve various weapons and scary masks for yourselves, and wait for a stormy night when a masked knight will come to you.’
Mohács Buso Carnival – ‘Buso Walking’

He disappeared as suddenly as he arrived. The refugees followed his orders, and some days later, on a stormy night, the knight arrived. He ordered them to put on their masks and go back to Mohács, making as much noise as possible. They followed his lead. The Turks were so frightened by the noise, the masks, and the storm in the night, that they thought demons were attacking them; and they ran away from the town before sunrise.’

Legends of the Lake
‘Once there was a giant named Balaton, who lived here happily with his daughter, Haláp.
When her playmate left her, Haláp died of grief.
When Balaton lifted an enormous rock for her gravestone, he was buried under it.
Water spouted up in the stone’s place, and the locals named it Lake Balaton.’

Herbarium Room
Effects of Plants:
Nature has many herbal medicines
for diabetes, lungs-, heart and circulation problems.
Their effect is significant during inhalation, eg: cure of breathing problems and antidepressant.
For the man of the modern age, the usage of a herbarium helps reconnect with nature. It conjures a fragrant meadow filled with peace, freedom, happiness. The minutes spent here calm the nerves and upgrade torpid senses.
