BUDAPEST – main image

Budapest is one of those places we visit quite often. When moving around it, we use public transport, the metro works there perfectly or we wander the streets of Budapest slowly. There are a few places we particularly like:

- old M1 metro line with absolutely brilliant vibe. We usually stay overnight at Kiraly utca and we are close to the M1 so we take advantage of it. We are regular visitors to Hősök tere , where the Vajdahunyad Castle is located. The Városliget City Forest has many attractions, such as the zoo , Vidampark (amusement park) and the largest and oldest thermal pool complex in Budapest, Széchenyi Fürdő , and a circus. In winter, a large ice rink is organized.

- You can visit the castle hill by going up the sikló railway or on foot, but you have to take into account the several minutes' walk up the stairs. Upstairs, you can visit a part of Buda with a castle, fountains, old buildings and our favorite cafe with a bookstore on Fortuna utca.

- Małgorzata's island is a springboard from the hustle and bustle of the city and a shelter from the heat among arranged and less formal greenery, there is a mini zoo, pubs, and there is also an open municipal swimming pool.

- Obuda is the oldest part of Budapest, you can see here Roman ruins, a synagogue, the Zichych Palace. The historic part of the city looks amazing against the background of a large slab.

- In case of bad weather, you can visit the Natural History Museum and have a good time. You can also go to the aquapark http://www.aquaworldresort.hu/

We do not recommend the Tropicarium at all, a waste of time and money in the temple of commerce.

Slovenian Tuscany - Prlekija – image 1
Places to visit
Slovenian Tuscany - Prlekija
Slovenia is still treated by some as a bridge or a link between countries, a sort of passage to more interesting places. Wrong, because it offers a lot of attractions on its own - and at favorable prices. They include, among others delicious white wines, pumpkin seed oil, as well as hot spring baths and truly Tuscan views. In the northeastern part of the country, right on the border, lies Prlekija, a region whose heart is the city of Ljutomer. It stretches from the rivers Drawa and Mura, from the village of Gornja Radgonja to Ormož. It is the kingdom of white wine, a picturesque area of vineyards covered with hills that reminds many people of Tuscany. A holiday in Slovenia , especially in this part, will mean visiting wineries, getting to know the flavors of local food and making contacts with the locals. They are characterized by openness and sociability, qualities which - according to legends - contributed to changing the plans of the first apostles along with wine. Instead of going on and preaching the Gospel, they preferred to stay here and grow vines. It is not without reason that the village, whose surroundings are considered the most beautiful wine landscapes of Slovenia, is called Jerusalem . It catches the eye with the red roofs above the stone houses and the gleam of the facades of temples decorating the elevations. If we come to Slovenia in spring, it is worth visiting the municipality of Veržej, which extends on the right bank of the Mur. It is especially delightful in the months when nature comes to life, covering itself with carpets of white narcissus. Tourists associate Prlekija with a characteristic landscape feature called klopotec. It is a wooden structure resembling a windmill, and its role is to deter birds from grapevine plantations.
