5 Charming Hungarian Cities to Visit Besides Budapest

Budapest is usually the first place that comes to mind when someone mentions Hungary. It’s also the only city most people visit in this country, but these five are equally worthy of your time.

Szeged

Located in close proximity to the Serbian and Romanian border, Szeged is home to many historic buildings that will take your breath away.

Debrecen

Hungary’s second-largest city is one of its most important cultural centers. It’s a perfect place to visit if you’re looking for a town with a relaxing, low-key vibe.

Sopron

Sopron is one of Hungary’s best small towns to get lost in, especially if you’re a wine lover. It’s situated near the Austrian border, close to Lake Fertő.

Pécs

This city was originally founded by Romans, but it was under Ottoman occupation for a significant period of time, so it features influences of both architectural styles.
